I once sat in a språkcafé where someone introduced themselves by saying they were arbetslös.

The group leader IMMEDIATELY interrupted: 🛑 “No, no. You’re arbetssökande.” 
Because it sounds more hopeful. More proactive. Less… depressing. 
Swedish has this gentle way of naming things, like it’s trying not to hurt your feelings.
 You’re not jobless. You’re seeking. You’re not failing. You’re learning.
 Even a kontrollavgift sounds like less of a slap than a “fine” 😂

Language really does shape mindset and Swedish often feels soft, careful, and slightly euphemistic… but kind. 
I’m not speaking from personal experience here (running three businesses keeps me very employed 😅) but I’ll never forget that moment. 
And honestly? There’s something beautiful about being in a country where even the words are designed to protect your hope 🥹

This year, we celebrated two anniversaries in one evening 🍕✨
 Ours on July 30th (9 years!) and my parents’ on August 1st (38 years!).
 Since Tomasz was in the hospital recently, we decided to bring everyone together for a small but meaningful dinner out.

We ended up at this cozy little pizzeria in Gothenburg — tiny place, big flavor. 
We started with bruschetta, then shared three different pizzas: 🍕 Eleonora 🍕 Tre Colore  🍕 Prosciutto All served on thin, crispy crusts that were just chef’s kiss.

And even though I’m usually picky with tiramisu, this one totally won me over. Soft, balanced, and not overly sweet — exactly how it should be.

We’ll definitely be back — and if you’re ever nearby, this hidden gem is worth a visit. 
📍 Gaetanos Pizza Italiana, Svagata 16, 413 14 Göteborg

🧠 If you’ve ever tried understanding someone from Skåne speaking full-speed skånska, you know this meme hits hard 😅

Swedes from other parts of the country often joke that Skåne has its own language.

👉 Skånska is a super strong dialect spoken in southern Sweden, and even native Swedes sometimes struggle to catch every word. So imagine being a language learner…

Fun fact from my own journey:
 When I was learning Swedish in Poland, my teacher was from Gothenburg so I learned “clear, melodic västkust-Swedish.” But in the meantime I visited only Skåne for years 🫠
 Later, when I applied to a school in Markaryd, the teacher immediately asked: “Did you live in Skåne?” …because apparently, I had picked up the dialect 😅

No hate - I love Skåne!
 But I also love that we can laugh about how wildly different Swedish can sound depending on where you are 🇸🇪

🇸🇪 Did you know you can ask for a “tolk” when booking a doctor’s appointment in Sweden?

A tolk is a professional interpreter who helps you understand and be understood — whether you’re seeing a doctor, visiting the hospital, or talking to the authorities.
 They speak your language AND Swedish fluently, and are trained to translate everything accurately and confidentially.

👉 You just have to ask when you book the appointment – it’s that easy. And the best part? It’s completely free for you.

🧠 Using a tolk isn’t something to be ashamed of – it’s a smart move that helps you get the right help, without misunderstandings.

✨ Ever heard of gårdsbutiker or Reko-rings in Sweden?

They’re farm shops where you can buy super fresh, local produce, like milk, berries, veggies, eggs, or meat, straight from the people who produce it 🥛🥬🥚

Each place is a little different. Some let you pick your own strawberries or raspberries straight from the field (often at a lower price). Others offer pre-orders or even have tiny cafés where you can grab a fika with homemade cake 🍓☕️

This milk? Just 15 kronor per liter - fresh from the farm, and you can bring your own bottle to fill.

🧭 Find this gem here:📍Kåhögs Mjölk, Byvägen 47, 433 76 Jonsered

Would you try something like this on your next Swedish countryside trip?

Got invited to a Swedish BBQ, so of course I brought my signature apple pie 🍏🔥
*self-promo*

It’s quick, it’s cozy, and it usually disappears before I even sit down 😂 (Swedish neighbors asking for seconds? Always a good sign.)

The recipe’s actually from my own e-book. A rhubarb version made it in, but I keep remixing it for every season. Because honestly… why complicate things?

Midsommar: The Swedish Way is still available on my website - it’s over 140 pages with 31 recipes, perfect not just for Midsommar but any family or friend gathering you host or attend 💙

🌭 A korv war is sizzling in Sweden!
 Stockholm copied Gothenburg’s iconic “KORV KIOSK” sign and göteborgare are not having it 😂

“They stole our särskrivning,” one local says. Meanwhile, the Stockholm team calls it “a tribute.” 😅

Is it a copy or a compliment?
 Only one thing is certain… this beef is 100% Swedish 🇸🇪
