    we swedes love our nature and we want to make it easier for people to be able to get out so we have hiking paths everywhere and alot of places to camp and stuff like that.

    While it's not impossible that you saw dolphins there, the porpoise is very common in Swedish waters and look a lot like dolphins. Porpoises sort of tumble above the surface instead of jumping like dolphins can though, which is where it gets its Swedish name "tumlare" meaning "tumbler".

    if you are on the west coast above Gothenburg you should deffinetly try the seafood. most of it is very fresh and sooo good. a couple of staples are the toast Skagen wich i basicly a starter and the Skagenröra that you can have on your breakfast bread, with fish, with some avocado, in a baked potato.. so many options :)

    Hey C2H!
    Thank you for taking me to Sweden ... cos I've never been! Great VLOG - interesting info' & looks so peaceful, so it's somewhere I could definitely go at some point.
    The cake you were given by the folks at the lake was obviously scrummy - because we got an "Ohhhh myyyyy Goddddd" from Charlene!!

    dont miss out on vättern, pretty nice near jönköping and huskvarna area, decent view, huskvarna strand is pretty nice because you have a 200m hill to the right, but near piren in the town of jönköping it almost looks like an ocean with a decent view

    What you saw in the waters was probably porpoises, they're quite similar to dolphins but WAY more common in the western waters of Sweden. :P

    The blueberrys...you will find them in the forrest but choose the small blueberrys. The big ones are from a diffrent country and taste much less.

    The speed-cameras is telling you to relaaaaax, your in Sweden. Here we take it nice and easy. 🙂 Stressing and rushing everywhere isn't good for your health. And also why the speed is slow in the forrest, is to give you a better chance if an moose or Rudolf the reindeer jumps out of the forrest.. And lastly, there are loads of cameras that actually isn't on, but you never know which ones are up and running 😁 P.s I hope you enjoy Sweden.

    In the book they sail to America from Karlshamn.

    A really nice video 🙂 I have to warn you thou. It is not allowed to publish videos from drones where you can see horison limes in Sweden. Very big fines.

      @@TravelTalesVlogsThat's not right. It is permitted to film and photograph with drones, but not protected objects with a photography ban. Also keep in mind that you are collecting personal data, if people can be identified. This means that you should not photograph or film people at close range who do not want to participate.

      Also public land needs a permit to be filmed, that why Swedes don’t have security cams. So be respectful (which I think are) ❤

      @@PernillaArtistic Not 100% true, fixed cams are not allowed to film without permits. That also includes mounted dashcams etc. But using your phone and film and publish is ok. But not using a drone where you can see faces clearly. Strange i know....

    They belong to the Dolphin family but they are called Porpoises so not those Dolhins you are used to see, I hope you drove the Swedish westcoast from Gothenburg up to Norway and not straight to Stockholm then Norway like most Van vlog channels.
