Even though my Grandparents were born in Sweden (Nana from Malmo), I
don't speak the language (Except for being able to say "Gothenborg"
approximately right). But maybe "grubbed up" means "dug up from the
un-cultivated dirt by long hard labor years ago", or something like
that.

Another item for your list: Sweden has canal trips on boats through
charming countryside and towns that sound delightful to me. Many
boats seem to have cats/dogs as part of the crew, and even a
kitchenette for tea or snacks!
