Is Sweden unironically a nice place? If I were to ever live somewhere for a year once I got going it would be Sweden or Japan.

Honest answer? Yes.

Even if it has degraded a lot in the recent years, we have a fully functioning welfare state and a well developed infrastructure (inb4 infrastructure is shit because the trains occasionally run late).

Even the worst thinkable ghetto neighbourhood in Sweden still offers a decent quality of life, and it still makes nation-wide headlines everytime someone gets killed.

Australia and Kiwi land are genuinely the two safeties the places I've ever lived, of course if I was in some shithole in Auckland I could find trouble etc but I'd happily walk around the cities in the early AM drunk knowing I'd be fine

I also live on an island, about 2 hours from the nearest city. Population on this island = 1.
Well 2 if you count my dog..

>>74944627
What's your job?
Comfy /10?
Annoying to get supplies?

>>74944526
I don't actually know much about safety levels in the U.K., I'd assume it'd be a bit worse than here but not that high and no where near the U.S.

>>74944661
>What's your job?
I work as a fisherman/tourist guide on the weekends.
>Comfy /10?
Absolutely, I love living here.
>Annoying to get supplies?
A little bit. Can't really do any last minute shopping etc.
In summer I take my boat and head over to the nearest town once a month, stock up on everything.
But in winter when the water is frozen over I take my snowmobile, that's faster but I can only load about a weeks worth of supplies on it. So I have to ride once a week..

>>74944745
Nothing like the US, you're just asking to be harrassed by some dick head, probably won't do anything but also could easily do somethjng. The difference between NZ and the UK is as big as the difference between the UK AND the US imo

Actually pretty common here in Sweden, especially around the southern coasts. There is something like 300 000 islands in Sweden.

>>74944526
a lot of the smaller towns are awful for many reasons

but i haven't found many things comfier than wandering around feilding late at night with a couple of joints to smoke

so quiet

>>74944794
The worst that has happened to me walking at night is I got a blow job by a cracked up middle aged maori whore and got HPV, and I always take duskwalks.

Comfy country desu, sick of the sunburns tho

>>74944982
>What do you do during your free time? Do you have much of it? Do you live alone in your home?
I'm a nature kind of guy. I go hiking around the area, lot's of fishing, hunting etc.
I work 3 weeks, have one off. So yes a week per month of free time.
And yes alone here on the island but there is a few houses across the water, mostly summer homes that are empty 80% of the time though.

>>74945070

Nah mate. I used to live in Stockholm city. I hated every minute of it. Just people everywhere, stress and noise.
Bought this island about 4 years ago and never looked back. Being alone is my preference.

That's for sure, I use a 3G/4G wireless router. One of those little usb stick things.
I get 10-20 mbit/s depending on the weather.
It's "unlimited" but still gets throttled after 150 gb.
Good enough for me though.

>>74944627
Comfy

>>74944627
Does it get really cold in the house with those thin walls during winter?

>>74945358
There is actually a 10 cm layer of insulation in the walls and my house isn't very big so my fireplace and electric heating keeps the place pretty toasty even in midwinter with -15 outside. Only problem I have really is snow, it builds up on the island and on my roof so I have to clear that out almost every day in winter.

Sure I am.
But you know that hundreds of thousands of people here in Sweden have at least one hour to the nearest hospital right? People enjoy living in the countryside.
If I need fast medical help they send a helicopter/boat etc.

Fugg, it's hard to imagine that something like this really works. Developed countries are just far from our reality, or maybe just the scandi ones.

>>74945716
>What kind of prey are the most common in the area? Months when you can hunt legally?
The most common is normal deer, moose and boar.
Deer - 16th of August - 31st of January.
Moose - 1st of September - 28th of February
Boar - 16th of April - 15th of February.
There is of course everything from small game (rabbits, badgers etc) and birds.
I mostly hunt boar and moose. There is a ton of wild boar here, I shoot 2-3 per month during the season.

It's actually really common here.
And the helicpters can land anywhere pretty much. The boats are monsters, twin 150 hp engines. So they reach you fast.
And it's all free of charge.

Do you cut the meat on spot or haul it back home? Do you sell it? Deer is kinda expensive here. How about there?

>>74946094
Well, yeah, I mean, that probably happens somewhere here, but Brazil is pretty big.

Get sick inna middle of nowhere and you'll most likely die.

You normalfags are so fucking obnoxious. Are you even aware of what you are doing?

>>74946143
>Do you cut the meat on spot or haul it back home? Do you sell it? Deer is kinda expensive here. How about there?
I usually gut and cut on spot if possible, especially moose since they often weigh over 500 kg. Only problem is bears. We have quite a lot of them and if they catch the smell of a freshly killed moose they come running, so you gotta work fast and get outta there.
Boar I haul home, same with deer.
And yes I do sell a little. Moose is the most popular wild game here so it brings a good price, I get around 45 dollars/kg
The rest I smoke, salt or freeze for long storage.

>Any encounters?
Yes sir, twice now.
Last season I was up in the hills hunting deer and had pretty much just dropped one and started to gut it when it came walking. Had to fire off 3-4 rounds close to it before she fucked off.
A few years ago I was hunting boar when a smaller bear came running like a madman. Sadly I had to shoot that one. It ran off after that, another hunter in the area finished it off.
>>74947001
>>smoked moose and boar
>That must be really tasty. I'm assuming you smoke fish too, do you use something like pic related?
It is, and no I built my own smoker with a external firebox and smoke tunnel inside that does the job real good smoking meat and fish on three levels
>pic related, it's not beautiful but works well

>>74947350
That's a great smoker. Wooden structure combined with the firewood give off a better taste than the inox smokers.
Do smokers attract bears or the smoke is too much for them?

>>74947663
>Do smokers attract bears or the smoke is too much for them?
They avoid smoke. Never had any problems with them while smoking anyways.

>>74947743
