Welcome to Sweden is a Swedish reality show starring American actors Richard Kiel (known as Jaws from the James Bond films) and Verne Troyer (known as Mini-Me in the Austin Powers movies). The show aired on Swedish channel 5 in early 2007.

During the couple of winter days they visit Sweden, Kiel and Troyer get to experience as much of Swedish customs as possible, including celebrating Midsummer’s Eve, May Day, a Crayfish party, Gymnasia graduation, Gustav Adolf-Day, Vasaloppet, opening of Parliament, a trip to Gotland and taking a booze cruise to Finland.
