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.

According to a source who spoke with PEOPLE, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are “focused on their separate lives” this summer due to marital discord.
According to a person close to Lopez, the pair “don’t have any summer plans together” at this time.
Lopez just got back to Los Angeles from her vacation in Europe. The actress “enjoyed her trip to Europe,” according to the insider, and “has more travel planned, but is back in L.A. for now.”

The Academy Award-winning director moved all of his belongings out of the couple’s Beverly Hills mansion before Lopez returned from her trip to Europe, a source previously told PEOPLE, more than a month after PEOPLE first revealed that Affleck, 51, and Lopez, 54, were living apart in Los Angeles as they dealt with marital discord.
Ben is still residing in the rented property in Brentwood. He has been there for the past two months, according to a different source. “He appears to be alright. He appears to be focused on his work and has been at his workplace every day. He is also interacting with his children.
After the Atlas actress returned from her trip, the couple got back together on June 26. They were seen going individually inside a West Hollywood building where they both have offices.

According to a source, Affleck and Lopez “remain friendly” and are concentrating on their careers and families despite the rumors regarding their romance. In a heartfelt Father’s Day homage, Lopez even posted a picture of Affleck, dubbed “our hero,” on her Instagram Story on June 16.
While Lopez shares her twins Emme and Max, 16, with her ex-husband Marc Anthony, Affleck is the father of three children with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner: Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12.
