do you have any prejudices or stuff about any european country? not to serious though, this is supposed to be fun. like "all swedish girls are blond and named ingrid" all french people only eat snails and drink wine. they think frence should be the world language so they refuse to speak english. all finnish people love sauna and isebathe (or whatever it's called, u know make a hole in the ice at winter and take a swim) germans buy mooseshit in jars and steal our moosewarning signs along the side of the roads when they visit sweden. gimme some more! i couldn't come up with anything more.
Hejsan! No I don't like sterotyping anyway I found you swedish girls are really-damned good-looking, I haven't met a girl named Ingrid though... I was in Goteborg last year. Var du ar fran?(is it right spellt?) Is it you in the picture?I have the same scarf.. I'd like to come back for a vacation at least.I wanted to visit such places in the countryside which I missed like Boras or Jonkoping or up north..where do you suggest me to go. Man today like one year ago I was up in sweden, it seems to me like ages.. Do you study or do you work?When is the summer festival this year? What's your name? My name is Fabrizio say hi to sweden by me.. ok? hej do
I think most people have the Irish down as drunks, Italian men as womenizers, the germans as boring. But they are all just stereotypes.
var är du fran? yeah it's me in the pic. with my pro-palestine scarf. i think you should go to gotland, the island at the eastcoast. there's a town called visby with an entire medieval wall surrounding the city and lots of medieval houses and ruins in the city. plus the nature is lovely, the sea, shores, cliffs. totally fab. jonkoping is also fab, i totally love it! the higlands of smaland. i actually live like two hours from jonkoping at the highlands of smaland but it's not as beautiful here as in jonkoping. i'm angelica. i tell sweden hi.
Angelica, a friend of mine back in the highschool has the same as you. Yes, I'd like to come back to Sweden and visit all over the countryside and small town.Anyway Iliked Stockholm so much. Well there are some family's friend living in Stockholm which I also visited last year and you know what, they've got an house just on the island you mentioned. I left Sweden last July(at the beginning) then I think i missed the most interesting month, well the problem was that it was raining any day since the half of june and you know visitng places especially like in the country with bad weather is not that good..then it was time to go back to Italy.. I may visit a friend in Danmark but I don't know if I'll have the money to visit all the places I'd like to in Sweden too.. I also should end my studies.. And what about you? Do you like festival, don't you.I wanted to go to the Roskilde.Have you ever been there?Well you probably have, it's very close to Sweden.. Do you know which dates are this year's edition? I looked up in the map but I didn't find the place where you live.Is it a small one?Smaland.. Ok I hope to hear from you again Angelica ciao
you have to see the island gotland, my favourite place in sweden. yeah the rain poured down this summer, the last months just rained away. going on a vacation to a weather like that isn't very fun. i've never been to a real festival actually so this ones hultsfredsfestival will be my first. smaland is the name of the part of sweden wich i live in you know, the town i live in is called hultsfred, that's small but not that small.
"Everybody from Norway have blonde hair, and there is polar bears in the streets." "People from Sweden are stupid" "In America every family has two cars" "In Mexico everybody wear those big hats" haha, this was kinda fun
Outside Europe, Americans are all fat and loud, Canadians are boring, everyone in Indias second name is Singh, Mexicans are all lazy.
Claudia´s small traveller´s guide "Europe in 3 Minutes": All Germans wear short leathern trousers, a hat and a moustache, the younger ones wear a dyed perm and look like Thomas Gottschalk or Dieter Bohlen; they eat sauerkraut and sausages and sing folk songs... All Scots have big teeth, drink single malt whiskey and Irn bru against the hangover in the morning, they drive Ford Scorpios and dress like Bob the builder... All Irish have red curly hair and freckles, live in cottages and have lots of sheep in the garden. All Italians say they were born in Venice to impress a bella bionda, they are very small and very fat because they eat too much pasta. All French are very proud of their "culture", but if you look closer they haven´t. They eat everything that creeps on the earth like snails or frogs and call it "novelle cuisine". The men are arrogant and look like Gerard Depardieu and the women are beautiful and look like Audrey Tautou. DON´T PANIC
I also judge a book by its cover. whatever... I think Dutch ppl are the smartest and the most attractive wmn and the most reliable and dependable. I think Spaniards are very self=conscious. VERY High Maintenance. Very stylish. Maybe the only ppl worse in this regard are the eyeTALIANS. Italians spend a huge amount of the GDP on brake repairs since ppl drive all the time like their brakes are indestructable and 110% dependable. Italian guys will hit on you if you are a woman and if you talk to them and may follow you around. Italian guys (about 50%) live with their mother till they are married into their 40s and beyond. Mama's boys that's fine. Guys are more gay than gay americans, even if they're not. If you are gay and living in Italy you'll probly wish you were living somewhere else (even Amerikkka). If you are living in the country where they filmed Il Postino you are living among some beautiful hardworking ppl who breathe in and exude the beatiy of the ocean and the mountains and the sky. PPL in Croatia tend to think they are better than Italians, even though 90% of the world knows Rome-- but who can even say "Medjugorje"? btw, I say Dutch ppl are smart NOT b/c they happen to speak english. Italians are just as smart but they are about 50% more likely not to speak english. But they don't hate you for speaking English, especially if you try to speak even a little italian. Ppl in Paris are largely provincial. (JK!). kind of kidding. anyway. Here's what happened at the Paris cemetery of Jim Morrison's grave: I said to a guard standing right in front of Jim's grave: "Par le vous anglais?" and he said to me, "NO@! FRANCAIS!!" and looked straight ahead as if he were a German. or if I had asked him where his mother was born. BUT a second guard approached and asked what happened.-- so he knew a little english and answered my question. Not bad. In the metro stop near Pierre LaChaisse cemetery a bloke was selling metro tickets for about 5% profit and he was giving very helpful directions. I got my tickets off him and didn't think he fit the FRENCH stereotype. Belgians are AWESOME.... very orderly, organized and creative but some of them may take it to an extreme where they resemble Germans. (I guess you can see I don't have a good impression of Germany. Sorry!! Really, I try to be nice whereEVER I go.) JOKE: What is someone who speaks several languages called? POLYGLOT What is someone who speaks two languages called? bi-lingual What is someone who speaks only one languge called? No, you moron, AN AMERICAN (i'm sure you were thinking "FRENCH" right sorry/t-y
No, you're wrong, everybody know that in Spain we have bulls running down the streets and men have moustache to look like our mothers
[QUOTE0migle]No, you're wrong, everybody know that in Spain we have bulls running down the streets and men have moustache to look like our mothers [/QUOTE] I really like this one
to be honest I always found Spaniards to be extremely laid back, easy going and up for a laugh. I agree about Italians being very self-conscious though.
