Swedish National Day.

Today, the 6th of June, is Sweden's national day.
It's a day I don't celebrate. It's a holiday in Sweden so in the past years I just got more paid when I was working, else nothing special. This day celebrates that Gustav Vasa was elected king 1523 and also the new instrument of Goverment in Sweden in 1809 (read more about the day here).
This is no big deal really. It became a holiday in 2005 so people still really don't know what to do on this day it feels like. Waving Swedish flags in Stockholm might happened but nationalism and Sweden aren't friends.

I listen to Swedish radio every morning while I drink my coffee. I like my morning radio show and just because I live in Germany would not make me stop listening to it.
Today they talked about the national day and asked people around the world who where listening to email what they where doing to celebrate. So I wrote in. A Swedish guy, also in Berlin wrote that he would boycott everything German today. I think I will not do that. I wrote that I would not celebrate more then sing "Euphoria" while biking (see video under). This song won the Eurovision Song Contest for Sweden. I think that's enough.
The awesome Swedish band First Aid Kit was in the studio as well, so I think I will listen to them all day to. Enjoy some Swedish music on this Swedish Day.
