Cool, I've been struggling with Portuguese. Mostly, I've been wondering why does Portugal even exist and how in the 7 hells they speak a different language even though they were the same country as Spain for ages! Anyways, good luck learning Spanish dear old carioca.

Some people in Spain speak a different language or dialect that looks a lot like Portuguese. Galego, I think. I remember meeting some of them and being perplexed. What was that, something even closer to Portuguese than Spanish? lol

Oh, and before we go off topic:

I like paella.

Paella is ok, but Portuguese rice dishes are clearly better.

Generally Spanish food is good, especially if compared no Northern European cuisine. But Portuguese, Italian and French are all better.

Don't you ever dare put those two together again, I will make you eat surströmming on knäckebröd with sourcream for four weeks straight. 😛

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken

I've heard enough about surströmming to recognize this as a serious threat. Just FYI.

Naw, I'm pretty sure the horse was an authentic North Swede 😄

Kind of., but not really. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meatball

Also Swedish meatballs are kind of terrible. Italian ones are much better.

Oh, and before we go off topic:

Catalan...Honestly I'm surprised that Spain managed to have almost an entire continent speak their language when they couldn't manage to get their country to speak their language.

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

To be fair, the one word that comes to mind when thinking about being in a cabin with Lord Byron is 'frightening'.
