Culture shock, sure, but the whole “Nordic model” is just a bit… Shit, honestly.
The whole country (that I have seen so far) feels like “Pleasantville”, but woke, and uber-modern, rather than 1950s Americana…
And the Turks. The fucking Turks here. Eugh…
Their rudeness seems more intentional than I would say it seems to be with more… “Native” Swedes.
Gonna be interesting learning to survive here. As a very “social” person, I… Certainly have some adjusting to do.
The strange mix of ultra-conformity and extreme cultural introvertedness is… A vibe. I’ll say that much.
Customer service? Ha…
This is exactly why I'd consider even a crime ridden South American country over Europe, at least people are too busy robbing and killing each other to be woke. I'm going to be relatively sane though and visit Hungary and Poland though and I think that's something other non-woke people should try. Check out the night life and see if the millennials and zoomers are as insufferable as your home country.
