Day 10
... I like about the well-ordered and efficient Swedes and add all my own idiosyncracies and present the world with a fabulous mix of just about of everything. And probably nobody would complain that much at all. I just wish all Swedes would be as generous and accommodating to all those with roots abroad, not just "nice" (read: Western) immigrants. In fact, I'm more convinced than ever that I should launch "Föreningen Osvensk Stämning" ...
