🇩🇰 Denmark just listed the US as a possible security threat.
🇸🇪 Now sources say Sweden is having the same discussion.

A lot of it is happening in the intelligence world, including Must, which is Sweden’s military intelligence service (part of the armed forces).

Sources say the concern is about trust and future intelligence sharing with the US, and whether sensitive information can still be exchanged safely.

There’s also a worst case fear: if Russia attacks a NATO country nearby, would Sweden get a warning in time?

But Must’s chief says no, the US is not a threat and remains a key partner, especially after Sweden joined NATO.

🤖 Swedes are turning to AI for love, health and career advice…

while saying they don’t really trust it.

A new report, “Svenska folket och AI 2025”, shows: ✅ 3 out of 4 have low trust that AI keeps their personal data safe ✅ 39% have asked a chatbot for personal advice, often about sickness ✅ 54% mostly don’t trust that the answers from AI are true

Philosophy professor Åsa Wikforss calls chatbots “extra seductive” because they talk with us and feel personal, even if it is just a machine.

Her point: AI can be a useful tool, but it should not replace our own thinking 🧠

💸 Avanza glitch made customers think their money was gone 🫣

During the night to Tuesday, users started reporting issues on Downdetector. From around 2 AM, many Avanza customers saw their account balances drop. In some cases it looked like big parts of their savings had disappeared.

By the time the Stockholm stock exchange opened at 9, problems were still there. Customers couldn’t place orders, and trading on the NGM market was kept closed for a while.

According to Avanza’s CEO Gustaf Unger, a faulty data file from an external provider caused wrong balances to be shown. He says it was only a display problem and that no money actually disappeared. Around 9:30, balances and order placement were back to normal.

💊 “Take Alvedon and drink more water” Again 😅

To be clear: I can’t personally say anything bad about healthcare in Sweden. Every serious thing I’ve had was properly taken care of. For the small stuff… well, Alvedon + more water honestly did the trick 😂
 The culture shock is real though, coming from a place where antibiotics appear at the first sneeze, sometimes not even at the doctor’s initiative, but because patients demand it (often without any valid reasons) 😅

What’s your most “drink water and rest” moment at vårdcentralen?

🇸🇪 Citybox Stockholm is what happens when you remove all the hotel extras you never really use and keep everything that actually matters.

📸 Press stay in collaboration with Citybox Stockholm via @marriedlenses.

Central location a few minutes from the station, self check-in at the screens, clean and bright common areas, comfy sofas in the lobby and a room that feels simple in a good way: modern design, super clean, lots of space for luggage and a proper desk for your laptop.

No breakfast buffet, room service or spa menu, which honestly makes sense on a short city break or work trip when you mostly sleep, shower and go. All those services usually push the price up, here you just pay for what you really use. For this location and standard, the value for money felt very fair 🥰

If you want the full review with prices plus honest pros and cons, the blog post is already live on the blog, link in bio.

😅 Me when Swedes come for my Sweden memes: I’m honestly laughing.

Because here’s the thing: I love Sweden with my whole heart. It’s my home, and I’m probably never leaving. Loving a place doesn’t mean pretending it’s perfect. No place is. It means you can laugh at quirks, poke fun at stereotypes, and still defend it at dinner. That’s healthy, actually.

And it’s not just my stories. So many of the memes are built from what you send me. Wild, sweet, ridiculous everyday moments from Malmö to Kiruna. I’m just the editor-in-chief of our collective chaos.

Do I have Swedish roots? No. Swedish citizenship? (for a moment) not yet. Do I feel Swedish? Absolutely, yes.

What’s your favorite “loving-but-teasing” Swedish moment?

😱 Dread just peeked into the mailboxes and onto the notice boards

🚪 “Hyresvärd” = your landlord. 🟢 “Hyresgästföreningen” = the Tenants’ Union.

How it works (no panic… yet): ⚠️ Every year they bargain locally about next year’s rent. ✅ If they agree, most contracts get a % increase (often from Jan, sometimes retroactive 😵‍💫). ❌ If they don’t, it can go to the rent tribunal and take longer.
 So that notice = talks for 2026 have started, not “automatic rent hike tomorrow”.

What did your area get last year?

🧿 From sushi spot to Turkish soul food in Malmö ❤️

After 1+ year away from Malmö, we visited an old client in the same location where we once ran his socials and shot photo/video for a sushi bar. Back then he told us about his dream: bring back his roots and serve authentic Turkish cuisine, no shortcuts.

That was the dream. Plan came later. That’s the story of Meyhane.

📌 Meyhane: Regementsgatan 64, 217 51 Malmö
 The food hits like a warm hug, the music sets the mood, and the owner’s smile says it all. You can feel when a place is run with heart and passion, both on the plate and in the room. Feels like a full-circle moment ✨

Fun detail: those animal paintings on the walls? Made by an artist and you can buy them on the spot. We’re obsessed 🐈🖼️

Have you tried Meyhane in Malmö yet? What would you order first?
