00:20 - OK.
00:21 - All right, there it is.
00:23 Another week in Sweden.
00:24 I am so excited.
00:25 Still in this race.
00:26 I'm still in it to win it.
00:28 Every week is another step closer.
00:31 - Let's see what we got inside today.
00:33 - Ooh!
00:35 - Yeah.
00:36 - All right.
00:37 - That's a lot of flags.
00:38 - Cannibaler.
00:40 - King Gustav.
00:41 - Tickets to something?
00:43 - Tickets to paradise?
00:44 - To your garden.
00:45 - A nice little map of your garden, probably.
00:49 - We just got a letter.
00:51 - Here we go.
00:53 "Dear Americans, today is June 6th,
00:55 "Sweden's National Day,
00:57 "and our version of 4th of July.
00:59 "And you'll get to partake in the celebration.
01:02 "This year, Sweden is also celebrating 500 years
01:05 "as an independent nation,
01:07 "and that might be particularly noticeable today."
01:10 - Yes!
01:11 - All these flags.
01:12 - 500 years, it just shows how great this country is
01:15 and how long it's withstood wars and controversy
01:19 and whatever it's had to deal with.
01:21 And I think it's really cool that we get to be here for it.
01:24 "From across the water, you can see Skansen,
01:27 "where you will be going to join the festivities."
01:30 Which is, I guess, over there.
01:32 - Wow. - That's awesome.
01:33 - "It's an open-air museum
01:35 "and considered a national treasure,
01:37 "showcasing the whole of Sweden
01:39 "with houses and farmsteads from every part of the country."
01:42 - Nice.
01:43 - "That's all fine, but today we're going to focus
01:45 "on dancing and eating."
01:46 - Dancing! - Yeah!
01:47 - All right. - My favorite.
01:49 - "You'll be meeting up with Skansen's folk dance team
01:52 "to learn a traditional skottis,
01:55 "and once you've got the hang of it,
01:57 "it's time to move on for some food."
01:59 - Okay. - Yes.
02:00 - My dance moves are kind of crazy,
02:02 so it's good to, like, actually learn, like, a traditional dance.
02:04 I'm looking forward to that.
02:06 - "Stockholm is the European capital of gastronomy this year.
02:10 "To honor that, chefs from all landscapes of the country
02:13 "serve variations or new interpretations
02:16 of regional dishes."
02:17 - Nice. - Yes.
02:18 - Hell yeah.
02:19 - "On this day, June 6th,
02:21 "everyone is coming to Skansen,
02:23 "even the king, King Carl XVI."
02:26 - 16th? - Yeah.
02:27 "Gustav will be there.
02:29 "He hasn't missed out once since he became king 50 years ago."
02:33 - Wow.
02:34 I can't believe the royal family's gonna be there.
02:36 Who'd have thought that?
02:37 This is, like, mind-blowing.
02:39 - "And speaking of royalty, later this week,
02:41 "you'll make a visit on the set
02:43 "of the internationally renowned TV series
02:45 'Young Royals'..." - Yes!
02:47 - "And meet with the actors more royal
02:49 than the real royalties for some."
02:51 - I only know a little bit about the show.
02:53 I know that it's really famous
02:55 and really successful all around the world.
02:57 The prince is going to a private school
03:00 and falls in love with someone from a different class.
03:03 It's like a love story between two young men.
03:07 - "You'll be in charge of craft services."
03:09 - Okay.
03:10 - "You know how Swedes love their fika.
03:12 Better not disappoint."
03:13 - Well, I don't know anything about the Young Royal cast
03:16 other than they are at a level of, like, almost idols.
03:21 So, yeah, I think I'll be impressed.
03:24 - "This week's coffret contains a tres kronor,
03:27 the national emblem of Sweden."
03:29 - Yep, on your hat.
03:31 - "A portrait of the king
03:32 "who celebrates 50 years on the throne this year."
03:34 - There we go.
03:35 - "Cinnamon buns.
03:36 It doesn't get more Swedish than that.
03:38 Enjoy your week. Anders."
03:40 - All right.
03:41 - There'll probably be some firework,
03:43 probably a lot of beer drinking.
03:45 Or champagne drinking, a lot of toasting,
03:47 and everybody hugging and being happy.

04:11 - Well, I don't know about you,
04:12 but I'm starting to rehearse.
04:14 I'm starting to rehearse dance moves in my head.
04:16 - Oh, you're ready.
04:17 - Yeah, I'm, like--
04:18 I'm choreographing.
04:20 I wonder if you like the dance in "Falun."
04:23 This is my first time with any kind of folk dance.
04:26 I'm excited to try it.
04:27 I did show choir in high school.
04:29 That's probably about the closest I've been to it,
04:31 but I hope I'm not terrible.
04:33 Oh, look, there's the amusement park.
04:35 - There it is.
04:36 - Woo-hoo!
04:37 - Thank you.
04:38 I have no idea what to expect for a Swedish folk dance.
04:41 Like, I'm kind of thinking, like,
04:43 maybe a little bit kind of like square dancing
04:45 in the United States,
04:46 like a little bit of da-da-da-da-da-da,
04:48 but no real idea.

05:01 - Oh, wow.
05:02 - Wow.
05:03 - She's gonna introduce.
05:04 - She's gonna say hi.
05:06 - Walking up and hearing the folk music going in
05:09 was really exciting.
05:10 I love music, all kinds of music.
05:12 So hearing some, like, traditional Swedish music,
05:15 I was super excited.
05:16 [cheers and applause]
05:18 - So, hi.
05:19 - Awesome.
05:20 - Hi.
05:21 Hi, and welcome to Skansen.
05:23 And today, you are going to get to learn how to dance.
05:28 - Yes.
05:29 - And you're going to dance with us.
05:30 - All right.
05:31 - So the tchotish is a very old Swedish folk dance,
05:34 and you can dance it in different variations.
05:36 But first, Christa and Cecilia will just show you,
05:40 and then we're going to teach you.
05:42 - Okay.
05:43 - Okay.
05:44 [violon playing]
05:50 - I do not know what the tchotish is.
05:52 I've never heard of it before.
05:54 [violon playing]
05:55 - There's no way I can do this, but we'll try.
05:57 [violon playing]
06:03 - Wow, amazing, amazing.
06:05 - So it's pretty simple, right?
06:08 - Wow.
06:09 - Yeah.
06:10 - Let's start with all of us pairing up.
06:13 - Okay.
06:14 - All right.
06:15 - I don't think it was super difficult.
06:16 It's kind of like skipping and dancing all at the same time.
06:18 - So it's first three steps,
06:21 like one, two, three, and then a little jump.
06:25 [violon playing]
06:28 And then...
06:29 - I don't know if we're doing it right.
06:31 - And then...
06:33 - Trying Swedish folk dancing
06:36 was like walking straight when you're drunk.
06:39 It just--it wasn't happening.
06:41 [violon playing]
06:43 - Wait, we're doing the same leg.
06:45 - I think we can all attest that I'm not very--
06:47 a good dancer.
06:49 I just kind of hop around
06:50 and do whatever chaotic thing that I want to.
06:53 [violon playing]
06:56 - I feel like I got a pretty good hang of the dance.
06:59 You know, I was having a little trouble with my leg.
07:01 I can't jump on my left leg,
07:02 but I was just kind of easing into it,
07:04 and it was still really fun.
07:06 - Okay.
07:07 - Yeah!
07:08 - Perfect. - Whoo!
07:09 - I'm crazy.
07:10 I did get the hang of the shorties.
07:12 That was fun.
07:13 That actually, like, towards the end there,
07:15 I was like, "I could do this all night."
07:17 This would be great, you know?
07:18 So now we're going to dance a dance called "Talljoksen."
07:22 - "Talljoksen."
07:23 - I feel like I'm definitely on the higher side
07:26 of the group when it comes to dance skills.
07:29 [violon playing]
07:32 I'm kind of more of a, like, modern music dancer,
07:35 but, yeah, I felt like I caught on pretty fast.
07:38 [vocalizing]
07:40 - I think it's fun, and who doesn't want to have fun
07:42 and celebrate with dancing?
07:43 Like, when are you dancing and not having a fun time?
07:46 Literally never.
07:48 - Yeah! Great job!
07:49 [cheers and applause]
07:52 - Dancing is a fantastic way to celebrate.
07:54 Like, it gets all of the joy and excitement
07:56 out of your body and into the world,
07:58 so it's perfect.
08:00 I think when I was a kid,
08:01 I actually did some Swedish folk dancing.
08:03 I wasn't very good at it,
08:04 and so I retired at the age of three.
08:07 - So I hope you have a super nice day here at Skansen.
08:10 - Yeah.
08:11 - So--and enjoy yourself.
08:12 - Thank you.
08:13 - And good luck.
08:14 - Bye.

08:18 ♪ ♪
08:23 - Look at those little goats.
08:25 They're so cute.
08:27 - Oh, here he comes.
08:28 Oh, here he comes.
08:29 Hey, cutie pie.
08:30 - Hi!
08:31 - Hey, buddy.
08:32 - Oh, yeah, you're so cute.
08:34 - So tall and handsome.
08:36 - Skansen is this fantastic historical walk--
08:39 like, open-air museum,
08:41 so you can just walk along
08:42 kind of like you're in a countryside,
08:44 but you'll see houses
08:45 from all sorts of regions in Sweden.
08:48 There's a petting zoo too,
08:49 and you get to see live music and traditional garb,
08:52 so it's a great place to spend the national day.
08:55 - So good.
08:56 - Oh, and the sun is so nice.
08:58 - I love food.
09:00 - I love food.
09:01 - Smells amazing.
09:03 - Oh, yeah, I think I want to go over that way.
09:05 - Oh, right.
09:06 - I love trying new food when I travel,
09:08 and traveling's huge for me,
09:09 so every place I go,
09:10 I always like to get just the traditional food.
09:13 This is my region.
09:14 - This is your region, right here?
09:15 - Wow, wow.
09:16 We got to try.
09:17 - Yeah.
09:18 It was freaking awesome to see
09:19 my region, Gästegland,
09:21 represented here.
09:22 - Of course it's dessert.
09:23 - Oh, nice.
09:24 - Of course it's dessert.
09:25 - I'm all in on this.
09:26 - We have a rhubarb sorbet,
09:28 and then only just baked.
09:29 - Oh, wow.
09:30 - Was it good?
09:31 - That's so good.
09:32 Wow, thank you.
09:34 - And what's this right over here?
09:35 - This is lamb sausage.
09:37 - Yes.
09:38 - What I learned today
09:39 is that each region of Sweden,
09:41 like, really finds the food products
09:43 that are great and natural in their region
09:45 and does their best to, like,
09:46 make something beautiful out of them.
09:47 - Oh, my God.
09:49 Wow.
09:50 - All for you.
09:51 - That is amazing.
09:52 - Thank you.
09:53 - If you guys had a restaurant,
09:54 I would come every day.
09:55 - I love modern takes
09:56 on traditional dishes
09:58 when they take them
09:59 and kind of deconstruct them,
10:00 put them together in a new way.
10:02 Like, the blue mussels.
10:03 - Are those mussels?
10:04 - Yes, these are mussels.
10:05 So the blue mussels
10:06 are, like, in the meatballs.
10:07 - These are mussels too,
10:08 but it's a whole different thing.
10:09 - Everybody knows, you know,
10:10 Swedish meatballs.
10:11 - Mm-hmm.
10:12 - But now they know
10:13 Swedish blue mussels.
10:14 - See, that's what I was thinking
10:15 when they asked me about,
10:16 like, Swedish food.
10:17 I'm like, well, I know
10:18 Swedish meatballs and I know fish,
10:19 and so let's blend the two.
10:20 It's perfect.
10:21 - They're not meatballs, though.
10:23 I don't know if I can do it.
10:25 - With the best food in the world.
10:27 - Mm-hmm.
10:28 That's right.
10:29 - Good, good, good.
10:30 - This is my people.
10:31 This is--I love this.
10:32 I love this.
10:33 - When I think about Swedish food,
10:35 I somewhat get angry
10:36 because since I've been here,
10:37 I've put on 15 pounds,
10:39 so Swedish food
10:40 is now making me angry.
10:42 - That's so good.
10:43 - It is very good.
10:44 - Oh, my gosh.
10:45 - Mm.
10:46 - Mm.
10:47 - Oh, that's so good.
10:49 - Oh, wow.
10:50 - Wow.
10:51 - That was the best salmon
10:52 I'd had in Sweden so far.
10:54 - So good.
10:55 - So good.
10:56 You know, we walked in,
10:57 kind of got the vibe
10:58 of what it was,
10:59 kind of felt zoo-ish.
11:00 Zoo food where I'm from
11:01 is not typically good food.
11:03 This food was phenomenal.
11:05 It just--every flavor,
11:06 we would just look at each other
11:07 and be like, "Man, this is--
11:08 this is one of the best things
11:09 we've tasted in Sweden so far,"
11:11 and it just kept going.
11:13 - Oh, that's fucking amazing.
11:15 - ♪ Had to have high, high hopes for a living ♪
11:18 ♪ Didn't know why, but I always had a feeling ♪
11:21 ♪ I was gonna be that one in a million ♪
11:24 ♪ Always had high, high hopes ♪
11:28 - What do you guys want to do?
11:29 Just stay quiet like everyone else
11:31 or go crazy?
11:32 - No.
11:33 - We have to be very excited.
11:34 - If we were in America right now
11:35 and the president was driving by,
11:36 don't you think we'd see some music?
11:38 - So everyone would be checked out
11:39 in all their flags, colors.
11:41 - And it's the 500th anniversary.
11:43 - And everyone would have a flag flutter.
11:44 - I know.
11:45 - 500 years.
11:46 - Yeah.
11:47 - I would think this place
11:48 would be packed.
11:49 - Yeah.
11:50 - In the U.S., it would be smashed.
11:51 - And it is silent.
11:52 - People aren't as patriotic here
11:54 as we are back home in the States.
11:56 - Definitely a little bit more subdued,
11:58 a little bit more low-key,
11:59 a little bit more chill.
12:00 - I wonder how many people in Sweden
12:02 have actually met the king before, though.
12:04 Maybe it's a more common experience
12:05 so they're just like, you know,
12:08 used to it.
12:10 One of the things that I've noticed
12:11 that makes this holiday
12:12 a little bit different
12:13 from the Fourth of July
12:14 is that I don't see
12:16 a lot of Swedish flags around.
12:18 Like in the Fourth of July,
12:20 we would see like red, white,
12:21 and blue everywhere.
12:23 (musique)
12:26 (cris de joie)
12:29 - All right!
12:30 - Whoo!
12:31 - Oh, this is actually very exciting.
12:32 - Yeah, I see something.
12:34 - Oh, wow.
12:35 Look at the whole fort.
12:36 Wow.
12:38 - Oh, look at their hats.
12:39 Their hats are so cool.
12:41 - Oh, here's the guards.
12:42 All right, here we go.
12:43 Here's the king.
12:44 - Sweden! Sweden! Sweden!
12:47 Sweden! Sweden! Sweden!
12:50 (cris de joie)
12:53 - Yeah!
12:54 (cris de joie)
12:57 - Yes!
12:58 - Oh, there's the prince,
12:59 the prince comes!
13:00 Sweden!
13:03 - He looked right at us.
13:04 (laughter)
13:05 - I think he was perplexed,
13:06 but hey.
13:07 - But don't you think
13:08 they liked it?
13:09 Can you imagine
13:10 if everyone was doing that?
13:11 - Yeah, I think
13:12 they were a little confused.
13:13 - Yeah, everyone wants
13:14 to do it.
13:15 - I think they were
13:16 a little confused,
13:17 but I think they liked it.
13:18 The king was definitely
13:19 a little confused.
13:21 You could tell in his way
13:22 of like why is everybody
13:23 screaming over there, hey.
13:25 But maybe they'll talk
13:26 about us at dinner tonight.
13:27 That'd be awesome.
13:29 (singing in foreign language)
13:32
13:38
13:45
13:49
13:55
14:01
14:07 - Hello my friends.
14:08 - Hello.
14:09 - Good morning.
14:10 - Hi, thank you.
14:11 - Welcome to Mosebacke.
14:12 Beautiful place.
14:13 - Thank you, thank you.
14:14 - Yes.
14:15 Now we have celebrated
14:16 the Swedish National Day
14:18 with other Swedes.
14:20 (laughing)
14:22 I visited a hardware store
14:23 yesterday.
14:24 (laughing)
14:25 - Of course.
14:26 - And bought some
14:27 palkrager, whatever.
14:29 I think many Swedes
14:31 just had a day off.
14:32 - Yeah.
14:33 - So here's a little
14:34 background to our relation
14:35 to a national day.
14:37 - Okay.
14:38 (train rumbling)
14:41 - 1983, 40 years ago this year,
14:44 it was decided that Sweden too
14:46 should have a national day.
14:48 Our neighbors in Norway
14:49 have one where they wave
14:50 like crazy with their flags
14:52 and sing stupid songs,
14:53 so why not we?
14:55 And since then,
14:56 we've been celebrating
14:57 Sweden's national day
14:59 on the 6th of June
15:00 by mostly doing
15:02 absolutely nothing.
15:04 (laughing)
15:05 One reason for that
15:06 is that most of us
15:07 don't know what we're actually
15:09 celebrating, 6th of June.
15:11 So let's start there.
15:12 What are we celebrating?
15:14 Well, it's actually
15:15 two totally different events.
15:18 June 6th, 1809,
15:21 we got a new constitution.
15:24 The leaders of the country
15:25 agreed to change
15:26 how the country was run.
15:28 Great, but how to celebrate that?
15:31 Gathering conference rooms
15:33 to shake hands
15:34 and sign papers?
15:36 We don't know.
15:38 The other event we celebrate
15:40 occurred 300 years earlier
15:42 when our land father,
15:43 Gustav Vasa,
15:44 was proclaimed king
15:46 in 1523.
15:48 Thereby, Sweden actually
15:50 did become independent
15:52 instead of being a part
15:53 of the Danish-Norwegian kingdom.
15:56 The excellence of this, though,
15:57 escapes Swedes today
15:59 as Norwegians now
16:00 are about 10 times richer
16:02 than us
16:03 thanks to their oil resources.
16:05 We could all have been
16:07 driving Ferraris,
16:08 partying with our fellow countrymen,
16:10 the Danes,
16:11 who most Swedes
16:12 consider more fun
16:13 to hang out with
16:14 than we are ourselves.
16:15 So what did we actually gain
16:17 from this separation
16:18 we're supposed to celebrate?
16:20 There were other dates
16:21 aspiring for becoming
16:22 a national day.
16:23 November 6th,
16:24 the date when our king,
16:26 Gustav II Adolf,
16:28 was killed in a battle
16:29 in German Lützen in 1632.
16:32 Or November 30th,
16:34 when King Karl XII
16:36 died in another battle
16:37 in 1718.
16:40 Choosing one of those days
16:41 would at least
16:42 have been very Swedish
16:43 as we are obsessed
16:44 with commemorating failures.
16:48 Apart from only remembering
16:50 when and how
16:51 our kings got killed,
16:53 we have our biggest military failure
16:55 on display in a museum.
16:57 The battleship Vasa
16:59 sank 15 minutes
17:01 on its maiden voyage
17:03 in 1628,
17:05 and 333 years later
17:07 we made the effort
17:08 to recover the damn thing,
17:09 so now everybody can watch
17:11 in amazement
17:12 how poorly constructed it was.
17:14 Our most cherished sports moments
17:18 are when we lost
17:20 the soccer World Cup Final
17:21 against Brazil in 1958.
17:25 And we're still torturing us
17:27 with the team song
17:28 from 1994
17:29 when we're digging gold
17:31 in USA,
17:32 though everyone knows
17:34 we only took the bronze.
17:36 (singing in Swedish)
17:40 We're just not good
17:42 at bragging
17:43 and not used to being
17:44 neither patriots
17:45 or nationalists.
17:47 Most of us feel awkward
17:49 waving with a Swedish flag,
17:51 but June 6th
17:52 at least nothing bad happened.
17:55 We're still trying
17:56 to figure out what to do
17:57 and are happy
17:58 for any advice.
18:00 But OK,
18:01 this year Sweden
18:02 turns 500 years,
18:04 so let's party
18:05 like it's 1523.
18:09 Yeah, that was that.
18:11 Tell me,
18:12 you were at Skansen,
18:13 the hot spot
18:14 for national celebration
18:15 in Sweden.
18:17 Was it wild?
18:18 (laughter)
18:20 It was really
18:21 kind of boring.
18:23 It was underwhelming.
18:24 OK.
18:25 Incredibly,
18:26 like if we had a parade
18:28 in the nation's capital
18:29 on the 4th of July,
18:30 you'd be 30 people deep
18:32 that entire stretch of road.
18:34 But you celebrate a lot.
18:35 Oh yeah.
18:36 It's a special day for you.
18:37 Very special.
18:38 And what about waving the flag?
18:39 You don't feel awkward?
18:40 No, everyone does.
18:41 We wear the flag,
18:42 we wave the flag,
18:43 we hang it all over our house,
18:44 we have it everywhere,
18:46 we make our food
18:47 look like the flag.
18:48 We dress our children
18:50 in the flag.
18:51 I mean,
18:52 our national anthem
18:53 talks about the bombs
18:54 bursting in the air, right?
18:55 We have fireworks,
18:56 it's loud, it's big.
18:58 We're definitely very proud
18:59 of our independence.
19:00 I think we kind of
19:01 scared him.
19:02 We were yelling so loud.
19:03 We scared the king.
19:04 You saw the king.
19:05 We did.
19:06 We yelled at him
19:07 and waved at him
19:08 and he was like...
19:09 He was like,
19:10 "Who are those guys?"
19:11 He was like,
19:12 "What are these guys doing?"
19:13 Yeah.
19:14 The day before,
19:15 I met several Swedes
19:16 and I was like,
19:17 "So are you excited
19:18 about tomorrow?
19:19 It's going to be
19:20 a 500-year anniversary
19:21 of Gustav Vasa being a king
19:22 and Sweden becoming
19:23 independent again."
19:24 And literally,
19:25 most of them said,
19:26 "Huh?"
19:27 They just didn't even know
19:28 it was 500 years.
19:29 But I will say,
19:30 that's what surprised me
19:31 is that this national day
19:32 is only 40 years old.
19:34 Like, 40, right?
19:36 Yeah, that's really young.
19:37 We've been celebrating
19:38 the 4th of July,
19:39 since its conception.
19:40 This is like,
19:41 younger than my dad.
19:43 Like,
19:44 no wonder people
19:45 don't really know
19:46 what to do.
19:47 Not only is it very young,
19:48 but it's confusing
19:50 because they're celebrating
19:51 multiple kinds of things.
19:53 And particularly,
19:54 there's another major holiday
19:55 that Swedes celebrate
19:56 in a couple of weeks.
19:57 Like, everybody's excited
19:58 for Midsummer.
19:59 It's like,
20:00 if you have a birthday
20:01 near, like, Christmas,
20:02 people always forget
20:03 about your birthday.
20:04 The closest thing
20:05 that I've seen
20:06 is with Christmas,
20:08 is with sporting events.
20:10 Swedes go crazy
20:12 in a football stadium.
20:14 And there's a similarity
20:15 when it comes to
20:16 celebrating your nation's pride.
20:18 Like in America,
20:19 when we celebrate
20:20 the 4th of July,
20:21 it's very similar
20:22 to going to, like,
20:23 a basketball game.
20:24 And Swedes,
20:25 if they could just
20:26 take that sporting pride
20:27 into the country's pride,
20:28 it would be...
20:29 Are they drinking
20:30 at the sporting events, though?
20:31 That might be part of it.
20:32 It might be.
20:33 But I think the other thing
20:34 is if you live somewhere,
20:35 you kind of take things
20:36 for granted that are good.
20:38 And, you know,
20:39 something that means a lot
20:40 to me is health care.
20:41 And, you know,
20:42 in Sweden,
20:43 you have this amazing
20:44 health care system
20:45 that supports so many people.
20:46 And in the States,
20:47 you just don't have that.
20:48 You know, people are dying
20:49 or going into debt
20:50 because they don't
20:51 have that support.
20:52 And so I think
20:53 maybe if Swedes
20:54 had that experience
20:55 and then they came back here,
20:56 they'd realize
20:57 how special that is
20:58 to have that support.
20:59 I really think
21:00 there's so much
21:01 to celebrate in Sweden--
21:02 the health care system,
21:03 the social welfare system,
21:04 the schooling system,
21:05 as well as just, like,
21:06 it's such a beautiful,
21:07 beautiful country.
21:08 You know, I'm really proud
21:09 to have Swedish heritage,
21:10 and I'm really grateful
21:11 to get to be here.
21:12 So I really do think
21:13 there's a lot to celebrate.
21:14 Thank you so much.
21:15 Now we know
21:16 next 6th of June
21:17 will be totally different.
21:18 All right.
21:19 Yeah, I'll be waving like crazy
21:20 with my Swedish flag
21:21 and say,
21:22 "Go, Underskottet Skulle, go!"
21:24 (laughter)
21:25 Yeah.
21:26 Thank you, Anders.
21:27 Thank you.
21:28 I got another surprise
21:29 for you.
21:30 Oh, I love surprises.

48:30
48:32 - Yes, it's good. - Oh, my God!
48:34 (laughs)
48:36 Thank you! I was incredibly nervous.
48:38 He took that long dramatic pause
48:40 to interview with me every single time.
48:42 I was just waiting for him to tell me that I was wrong
48:45 so I could run back up behind Des and give it another go.
48:48 It was... it was pretty tense.
48:50
48:52
48:54
48:56
48:58
49:00
49:02
49:04

49:10
49:11
49:13 - I think he was one...
49:15
49:17 And...
49:19 I think he was the other one.
49:21
49:23
49:25 - So you picked Carl Knutson Bunde...
49:28 - Uh-huh.
49:30 - And Erik A. Pommen, the names of the king.
49:32 - Uh-huh.
49:34 - And you were right. - Yes!
49:38
49:39 - Oh, Des! Fudge!
49:41 - Okay. Guys, I lost.
49:43 I'm not trying anymore.
49:45 - Okay.
49:47
49:49 - (laughs)
49:51 I'm a little disappointed in myself,
49:53 but at the same time, I tell people,
49:55 "We have one job to do on this Earth,
49:57 and that's the best job."
49:59 And, uh, I'm kind of tired, so...
50:01 I looked out the window,
50:03 and everybody's standing there, so...
50:05 - Oh! - Des!
50:07 - It's okay. - Quite a few kings.
50:09 - You know, it is what it is.
50:11 - Yeah.
50:13 - It's okay. I'm okay.
50:15 I am so sad that it was Des.
50:17 We grew so close through this--this whole thing.
50:20 It's just been Kirsten, Des, and I for a while now,
50:23 so I'm--I'm devastated.
50:25 I'm gonna be coming back to Sweden.
50:27 - Go make some money. - Sorry, Dad.
50:29 (laughter)
50:31 I can honestly tell you, I came for Sweden
50:33 to get something, and I--and I got it.
50:35 I got it.
50:37 I got healing.
50:40 More purpose.
50:42 And I learned.
50:44 I learned from everyone.
50:46 And, um, I'm gonna go home,
50:48 and I'm gonna use what I learned to help others.
50:50 To help others heal.
50:52 Sometimes you have to visit difficult things to heal.
50:55 And I did, and, um...
50:57 Everything happens for a reason.
50:59 I never learned anything from winning,
51:01 but I've learned a lot from losing.
51:03 And the takeaway is not just about our family.
51:06 The takeaway is when you're in a different place,
51:09 you look for commonalities.
51:11 You look for what binds us together.
51:13 And it's not only heritage.
51:15 It's being people.
51:17 And it's that love, and that never ceases.
51:19 You know, we go on, our ancestors die,
51:22 but that love perpetuates.
51:24 So I'm thankful.
51:26 My journey's at an end.
51:28 But you know what?
51:30 It's just time to grow.
51:32 So I'm okay with this.
51:34 You know, I'm okay.
51:36 Girls, I'm gonna tell you, you better represent.
51:39 Old people, represent.
51:41 Okay?
51:43 She's been such a mother figure for me.
51:45 Like, she has given me so much wisdom, so much strength.
51:49 She just knows what to say to bring somebody up.
51:52 Okay, so we say bye-bye now?
51:54 Bye-bye now.
51:56 Bye for now.
51:57 I know that she wants to be here.
51:59 So it's hard to see someone's dreams die.
52:02 It's a hard thing.
52:04 So I understand this has been a very special journey for you.
52:07 It has been extremely special,
52:09 and I'm extremely grateful, and I've been blessed.
52:12 I'm happy I've had this journey.
52:14 Yeah?
52:15 It's been great having you on the show.
52:17 Thank you.
52:18 And it's been a pleasure to get to know you
52:20 and get some of your intelligence
52:22 and knowledge of Sweden.
52:24 I think I absorbed that, and I will have that forever.
52:27 And you're handsome!
52:29 Was that enough?
52:30 Yeah, it's enough.
52:31 You didn't pay me that much.
52:33 So I've got to give you something back.
52:36 Here's your family tree.
52:38 Oh, thank you.
52:39 Yeah, this one doesn't look that much,
52:42 but it's everything you found out about the Swedish past.
52:45 Why, thank you.
52:46 That you came for.
52:47 That is exactly why I came for him,
52:49 and to see where I was born.
52:51 Yeah.
52:52 And I did that.
52:53 I really believe I obtained what I was meant to obtain
52:56 from being in Sweden.
52:58 I kind of appreciate where I came from and who I am,
53:02 which has been a struggle.
53:04 So I'm so blessed, and I appreciate it.
53:08 Thank you.
53:10 It would be nice to have a family reunion,
53:12 but I'm not ruling out the possibility of it
53:15 coming at a different way.
53:17 It's been an honor having you on the show,
53:20 and I hope you come back.
53:22 I hope to come back with my dad.
53:24 Yeah.
53:25 So have a safe trip home.
53:27 Thank you.
53:28 You're welcome.
53:30 Je serai éternellement reconnaissante
53:32 pour le reste de ma vie, pour cette opportunité.
53:35 Je n'étais pas en position financière
53:37 pour faire ça de ma façon.
53:39 Donc pour moi, chaque jour de ce voyage,
53:41 même si c'était un jour difficile,
53:43 je me sentais blessée et je sentais que c'était valable.
53:46 Et à aucun moment ai-je dit
53:48 que je souhaiterais ne jamais avoir été une partie de ça.
53:51 Tant de gens ne voient pas les blessés devant eux,
53:54 et c'est probablement l'un des plus grands que j'ai eu.
53:57 J'aime le Soudan.
53:59 J'aime les Suédois.
54:01 Et la beauté.
54:03 Et...
54:05 Même si la plupart des Suédois
54:07 n'ont pas hâte de leur jour national,
54:09 je le prendrai chez moi
54:11 et je serai fière de mon jour national suédois,
54:14 le 6 juin.

56:10 have pursued a variety of livelihoods,
56:12 including fishing and fur trapping.

56:31 Too salty, too gamey.

56:36 - I'm gonna go. "For traditional,
56:38 environmental, cultural, and political reasons,
56:40 reindeer herding is today legally reserved
56:43 only for the Sami."
56:45 - Hmm.
56:47 - "You will partake of the age-old tradition
56:49 of reindeer chipping that occurs this time of year
56:52 when the calves are newborn."

57:03 teach you the trade and traditions around it.
57:05 As this is done out in the wilderness,
57:07 you will spend the nights in a traditional lavu,
57:10 which has the size and look of a tipi."
