Like watching the swedish classic movie Fäbodjäntan =] Eat swedish Meatballs or like Elvis sings Smörgåsbord (Smoergosboord). Another classic is "Surströmming" (suur-stromming). Very popular in the north of sweden =D
In south part of sweden about 100km from Malmoe you have the first IKEA store in the world.

Haha! I have never tried that sadly. Is it close to what we have here in south? "Kroppkakor" (direct translation is bodycakes) made of potatos and meat inside. Heard there is a Paltzeria up in pite so i must visit that place!

2 bad our country is so boring that u never wanna visit the whole country, you kind of wanna jump over some transportroads lite the e4 between luleå and sundsvall (just have all the cities in between) but thats not gonna happen!
alla barnen gillar att åka polisbil, men det försvinner med åren.
True true.
But E4 can be exciting anyway.
When i go upp north to my relatives in Gavik (the high coast area) western northland an takes The E30. Sometimes there will be some nice cars you can find and play a little =D
Hansa:
Haha!
Yes last year it was the craziest midsummerparty that my father has aranged. Bayan mix =D

I would like to travel around with fellow PPF members. Hopefully I will learn how to speak Swedish a little bit and talk to the Swedish babes
Necessary lexicon #1:
Babes = Brudar
Beautiful = Vacker
Moonshine = Hembränt or Hembraent, more useful word than you might expect. Car = Bil
Taxi = Taxi
Airport = Flygplats
Airplane = Flygplan
Nice wheather = swedish favorite phrase = Fint väder, the letter ä is pronounced like "ae"
Otherwise people here in Sweden are pretty good in understanding and talking english. Id say that 80% of the population can talk and understand basic things cause we have english lessions in school here and its actually our second language.
If you wanna learn a special word before you are coming here just let us know, i know that the pronouncing of the words still might need hearing before its correct but if you learn the words its still easier to make yourself understood.
I've heard that Swedish is top 5 in the hardest language to learn. But you'll get the hang of it once you're here.
