16 Photos Proving That Life in Sweden Is Nothing Like in the Rest of the World

10.4 million people live in Sweden — that’s just 2 million more than in New York City alone. But this country has just as many surprises as countries with larger populations. Maybe even more.

We at Bright Side love finding out how people in other countries live. And Sweden won over our hearts.

My Demanding Neighbor Complained to the HOA About My Halloween Decorations – The Following Day, She Was Pleading for Assistance on My Doorstep

My neighbor, Irene, reported me to the HOA over my Halloween decorations—plastic skeletons and cobwebs. Less than a day later, she was at my door begging for help. Why the change of heart? You’ll see!

I’m Wendy, a retired schoolteacher and grandma, and apparently, public enemy number one in our neighborhood.

“Wendy! What are you doing?” Irene yelled, hands on hips, when she spotted me decorating.

“It’s Halloween, Irene! Same as I’ve done for 30 years.”

“But it’s so… GARISH!” she exclaimed.

I chuckled. “It’s supposed to be a little garish.”

A week later, I received an HOA letter about my decorations. Guess who complained? I called the HOA, and they said I had to remove my decor in 48 hours or face a fine. Not happening!
