Which one?

Here in Sweden I had a mandatory religious class. They teaced about Hindu, Buddhism, Christianity and so on. We pretty much learned of all the "major" religions and i would say it was pretty beneficial to us all. Did it have shortcomings? Yes, but it was better to get a broad perspective on things instead of just one thing to be teached as "true". We also had history parallel with religion which tied them both together pretty nicely.

Something Swedish

It's a semla. Something of a dry fluffy bread with whipped cream and a filling made on almonds. Vanilla sugar on the top. There also exist other variants with different bread or fillings. This however is the traditional semla.

How often do you go to concerts?

Pretty much never been except the last two years. Went to the following the last two years:

  • Live orchestra of Lord of the Rings music (really nice)
  • Eivør (really can't recommend her enough)
  • Heilung (Eivør as foreband, really amazing as always)
  • Planned to go listen to the Witcher music with live orchestra later this year.

It seems that once you find your niche and place to look it's really nice!

What universally beloved videogame you just can't enjoy?

I can understand your feeling. I first bought Witcher 3 in 2016 or so and didn't touch it for years. Picked it up 2 years ago again and loved it. It's not he best combat, not the best complex game but the story really hooked me. Mind you, it does take a couple of hours for it to get going. And the secondary quests (side quests) are some of the most memorable I've ever played.
