Not sure how Sweden views us in the US. Maybe being Swedish they think being exotic and foriegn they can enjoy vibrant social and sex life (given they are athletes and have accents...they're probably not far off there). Jacksonville is an average city, but can say climate wise being in Florida is warm and access to beaches. Maybe they are thinking about off season and relaxing and getting a tan and enjoying being home owners and driving cars. One thing they may find is the US is largely boring in a good way. The image our media and entertainment projects is not mirrored by majority of places and people. 99% of the time life is doing mundane tasks like working, shopping, commuting, exercising, spending times with friends and family. It's nice, but not action packed or dramatic. Then again maybe they like the peaceful life without worrying about those Danish hoards coming in the night (a joke, love the nordic countries). |
Cars, yes! I think that's a big part of the romantic image people have of America. Lots of driving around in cabs in the sunshine.
