I’ve been in Sweden one night now and I like the country so far. Swedish people appear to be very friendly and approachable. Everyone speaks English fluently, even older people. The service is great and I compare the service industry in Japan with every country I ever visit and Sweden is just about on par with Japan. Spain on the other hand was far worse.

• Big Brother is still a big show in Sweden.
• They have a primetime Survivor show here where children compete with children.

I once worked with a Swedish guy who was extremely competitive. I wonder if competition is a national theme in this country.

• Everyone in the country seems to be relaxed and layed back. I think the 40% income tax they pay may have a numbing effect.
