I’m quite curious about this as a swede and how Sweden is viewed from other countries
As a french, I can tell you I really love that country.
I made several trips there, and I love the landscape with nature everywhere (especially lake and forests), even in a big town like Stockholm, as well as the atmosphere which is full of serenity. This is clearly my favourite country, and that's how I see it from another country.
Now I'm not sure I could live there though, mostly because the winter is really long and kinda cold, with very short daylight. I actually only travelled there during summer.
Swedish people are nice to me, but it's not very easy for someone like me who's kinda shy and reserved, cause they generally won't come talking to you and can actually totally ignore you, not even showing any curiosity for a foreigner.
And I'm quite curious as well to see how Sweden is viewed by other people.
