What NOT to Do in Sweden | Avoid These 10 Mistakes!

Swedish people are often polite and friendly, and they don't show their dislike very openly. But there are some things that Swedes HATE above all others! Avoid these pitfalls if you visit Sweden. This list includes some common and some more unexpected items. They might be especially unexpected if you come from a very different culture compared to the Nordics and Scandinavia. These are the ten things discussed in this video: 10. Buying a round of drinks for everyone at the table. It might sound like a common thing to do, but you should be wary of that in Sweden. 9. Asking about people's salaries. This is still a very taboo topic in Sweden, so avoid it. 8. Boasting is rude in almost every culture, but it's especially rude in Sweden due to the Law of Jante (Jantelagen). 7. If you mix up Sweden and Denmark, or Sweden and Norway, then you've really gone and annoyed us Swedes... 6. Don't stand on the wrong side of the escalator. Really. This is something only extremely ignorant or rude people do. 5. Many people are atheist or agnostic in Sweden, so discussing your religion is seen as....quite odd. 4. It's common to speak loudly in many cultures. Sweden is NOT one of those cultures. 3. Give people some space! Do not walk too close to people. 2. Here's a silly one that I just had to include: don't talk about the Finnish hockey team. We've been beaten a few too many times by them. 1. And finally, the most important thing not to do: do not EVER cut in line. Seriously. Don't even think about it.
