10 Reasons You Love & Hate Your Country.

[moonford]

Well, while it is true that the other Scandinavian countries rank higher when it comes to safety, Sweden is still a very safe place to live (think it was in the top 25 or something).

One thing that I forgot to mention is the Swedish cuisine. I'm not fond of it at all. But luckily you don't have to limit yourself to it.

I've got an old VHS-tape with all of ABBA's music videos. \m/

They were basically one of the many band pioneers. Love em!

Scandinavian countries are so rich in history too, they make over countries look like trash.

Are they clean? My mum went to Amsterdam and she said it was almost spotless.

Yeah, no complaints there. Although, I've never been outside of Scandinavia so I can't really compare to other countries.

Alright, here goes, some kind of list..

+
free, good education
social insurances
social services
free/affordable healthcare
=pretty much the whole welfare system
language
nature
safety
equality

-
geopolitical location
weather: it's cold and dark
economy could be better
need more tolerance towards minorities and immigrants

There's more pros than cons but that's not to say there's nothing to complain about. A lot of things are pretty good here compared to the world as a whole but that doesn't mean that they don't need improving here.
