Very, very few people have a real sanctuary - most people get married... so for most people, sanctuaries are a dream and not reality. And if you get children, well, you're stuck on them, no matter what you do, for 18 years. And neighbors... well, difficult to get rid off, right? :-) About Sweden: Note, that the right is there, but vaguely specified. You may not put up a tent in a backyard, near a house, near certain constructions or in a vulnerable place for nature. If you cut yourself putting up your tent, go to a hospital - in Sweden, it doesn't matter where you did it. Blowing up somebody's property, like blowing up a tree, would be a definite violation of nature, and would remove your right to be there. Economic liability is a non-issue, Sweden doesn't use the anglo-saxon system, and police is an invention for the dishonest, not for honest people. And the liability issue would not depend on who owns the property, state or private. The rule is simple: If you don't behave really nice, you're not allowed to make use of this rule. Moving a stone from a stone wall like this one (which are everywhere) would be a MAJOR violation of this rule: In other words, you have the right to behave well in a place where people probably wouldn't notice you anyway. I have one correction on my previous post: Picking berries is only allowed in state-owned forests in Denmark, a hat full per person. On private property, it is not allowed in Denmark without permission. I'm not sure about berry-picking in Sweden, but I am sure that 99.99% of all wild berries in Sweden are not harvested.
