Seeing all the beautiful photos of various Scandinavian countries such as Slovakia,Ukraine,Slovenia, I'm curious how is the life of a Scandinavian?

Cause it seems to me that there is only beauty anywhere you look. Lush green gardens, beautiful hilltops, beautiful girls speaking beautiful languages, nice beautiful urban restaurants and good looking cafes, tasty food but also healthy.

So I've always dreamt of living in one of these pretty countries where people are friendly, there is no crime, lots of love and compassion, can buy anything you want. You guys are having so much fun it's not fair! :lol:

So please tell me hows life? Do you guys have any worries at all? Can you guys just skip office?

In no shape and form Ukraine/Slovakia or Slovenia belong to Scandinavian peninsula. But those countries are Denmark,Sweden,Norway,Finland.

As for green stuff and nature, every Europe country have to more or less extent pretty scenery of nature. If anything most beautiful scenery of nature can be actually found around Alps (Slovenia/Italy/Swiss/France etc) . However, every Europe country have at least one distinctive scenery on its own. As for worries, its far from green and dandy , but we do not have fear for existence and fear of expression (to certain degree which elude us of being free whatever).

Do you guys have problems of not having enough food or lack of electricity or no internet or lack of water? Can you buy any car you want?

I experienced it during Yugoslavian Civil War. Food was not scare however. Only time today we lose electricity and internet is when some major disaster struck. Other then that, EU have been good place to live.

About material stuff well that's another story. Believe it or not, Europe have some pretty damn poor countries around. India level or worse. Serbia for example have average pay per hour of only 0.7 euros while minimum is 0.2 euros.

Only good thing and difference between the rest of the world(im speaking about Europe) is that we have great social policy, even Serbia on that matter.

Nice. So I've heard that the people in Poland are very strict with etiquette. A Lebanese friend was telling me that apparently she was having lunch with a polish couple and they were having a burger with a fork and spoon. Is it possible to have a burger with a fork and spoon?

Hey Saul, I applied for a Portugese passport since my mom was born in Goa before 1960.

I hope I get it, I've hired a criminal lawyer. I mean a CRIMINAL lawyer if you know what I mean.

Did you also get one made? How long did it take you?
