The Swedish provinces on youtube

Last night I discovered that there are lots of small Swedish towns where people have recorded their lives on youtube. These are places where boredom is the fourth dimension. In Lilla Edet, for example, where I lived for three years, the highlight of someone’s year came when uncle cleaned the outside of a saucepan with a metal file. From Sorsele, there is a film of a small train in a siding. After some seconds, another train approaches the platform and stops. No one gets on or off. The film stops.
