granted and as such, they will give often give thanks. Failing
to say thank you for something is perceived negatively in
Sweden.

Swedes are egalitarian in nature, humble and find
boasting absolutely unacceptable. In many ways, Swedes
prefer to listen to others as opposed to ensuring that
their own voice is heard.

12. Blaire:
Blaire is a college student that is looking to go on a trip after graduation. She loves the outdoors,
especially going to the beach. She has never taken school too seriously and considers life
experiences as valuable as lessons learned in the classroom. She is close with her family, but her
friends are everything to her. She has a collage of tattoos that are mostly sayings in foreign
languages and she adorns woven bracelets and graphic tees. She loves music festivals and never
pays more than what she thinks a ticket is worth. She has been to Europe before on a backpacking
trip, but didn’t do all of the things she was planning on doing. She wants to explore, and be free.
She knows she has to come home and work, but this time after college is when she can take
advantage of having free time and has no strings attached at home.
