You Are Swedish

You are a very unique and interesting person. There aren't many like you, and your kind is a bit of a dying breed.

While you fit inside the mainstream, you are an outlier. You have your own unique words and expressions that many people don't understand.

You wish more people appreciate you for who you are. You are like an undiscovered indie rock band or an underrated type of cuisine.

You are beautiful, fascinating, and expressive in your own way... if only people would stop and take the time to listen.

Yeah, why not? I feel very unique!
