Sweden's commitment to the common good runs deep, from the folkhemmet ("people's home") ideal that shaped its welfare state to the Sami people's ancient joik singing tradition in the Arctic north. We'll explore how Swedish communities maintain connection in a culture that values both solitude and solidarity, meet Sami storytellers preserving indigenous knowledge, and discover what fika, the sacred coffee break, really teaches us about the art of slowing down to listen.
