Este es buenísimo, me siento identificado con ciertas cosas porque ya me salen de la nada, lo cual no quiere decir que me crea sueca ehhh, se pegan las cosas. Asi como los que van a méxico y se les pega el acento, los albures, los chistes locales osv!
Me dio tanta risa en que uno se vuelve un experto gracias a Ikea...jojojo acá supe el valor de una "fika" ...bechos mi Ró!
jojojojo, buenisimo Rodrigo... sabes que la primera parte la copié y se la envié a mis companeros del grupo donde trabajo, todos ellos suecos, y se han divertido como enanos,bueno como suecos jejejeje.... al menos no se ofendieron ni nada, mas bien se reconocieron en casi todo jajajaja...ahora les enviaré la segunda parte... eso de las semanas en numeros por fin me ha entrado en la cabeza, jeje
saludos y que tengas un buen dia/noche!

Maga, es que uno lo ve así, obvio, como dicen los suecos cuando se los muestras, no sotros ni siquiera lo habíamos pensado así pero es verdad, jaja. Pues luego lo hablamos y hacemos Fika, no.
Lore, ah, pues muchas gracias por su apoyo en la promoción de algunas de las notas de este mundo rosa, jaja.
Marthita, buena propuesta, buscaré el libro y ya nos reirémos de los puntos que más nos lo garanticen.
Abrazos a todas.
