Hello everyone from Sweden! You may get annoyed with us Americans, so do I. But I have a lot of ancestry from Sweden and I'm very interested to meet some of you and learn more about Sweden in general. Music, food, pop culture, slang. All of it.
I play video games (of course) and love space and science. I'd love to make a discord and get to know some of you, maybe play some games on steam as well.
Since this is reddit, you may already be exposed to much American media and culture, but I can offer to teach you anything you'd like about America or explain any current events over here as well.
Nice to meet all of you in advance, adjö!

People are definitely interested to talk about it with you, maybe even help find your distant relatives if there's something to go by. Just don't take it too far and make it a part of every conversation.
The thread the other guy mentioned was a pretty good measure how not to think and behave. The man was saying that he'd never return to Poland since "people were nice and helpful, but they didn't care that much about my Polish heritage". Something along those lines. It's just not that big of a deal to us.

Never, not me. Even if my relatives were alive, they probably aren't anything fancy.
I'd go-to Sweden for the fish, that orange soda I've heard of 'moose blood' or something. And the snow.

Orange soda with moose blood? Never heard of that but sounds like something a small brewery could come up with! There is a beer brewed occasionally where I'm from made with reindeer blood. Usually around the time there's a metal festival (of course) called House of Metal. Name of the beer is "Reinin Blood" I believe. Haven't tried it myself though so no idea how good it is!

It tastes somewhat like Irn Bru if you ever tried that

That's a great soda but absolutely does not contain any animal blood hahahha. Someone must have tried to play a prank on you!

Trocadero is a top tier soda, and definitely something to try in Sweden!

Trocadero is awesome, but do not expect it to taste like oranges, because it doesn't :D
Tastes more like caramel/fruit mix.

No, it definitely doesn't! It's its own flavour. It's trocca!

Do this: drink it, and think of ”orange” and ”apple”. Then you will definitely notice it.
