You haven't tasted water unless you have tasted it in Norway. Especially outside of the inner city areas, the tap water is so cold and clean, fresh from the mountain. The expensive ''VOSS'' water from Norway is basicly equal to normal tap water here. People saying water is water, haven't really tasted good water, and people in Norway saying water is water, just lack perspective of their own, vs water you get in another country.
Absolutely! 100% agree! When I go back to England no bottled water tests as good as Norwegian tap water anymore. You spoiled me here with such a high quality of life.
Great country!
@Zack Bonsal ouch! Now I’m curious to try it too 😁👍🏻
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel Please don't. @Zack Bonsal and @Hector Malcolm are just two dummy channels, this whole ''Flixzone'' thing is just a scam.
@@bobmalibaliyahmarley1551 hmm.. and now I’m confused 😁☺️
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel If you take a look at their channels, you can see they contain nothing, just like all other comments on CZcams from channels about this. It's an obvious scam, what scam it is I don't know, but I wouldn't visit the website or download anything from it if I was you.
In the mid seventies I was told that Norway was the best land to live in, everyone is so friendly, great standard of living, free health care, beautiful people and almost no crime, blah, blah.
I flew over from the UK one hot summer in 1974 to take a look and see what the big deal is.
Never went back.
When I go back to the UK to visit friends & family, after a few days I get homesick for Norway - I don't feel safe when I'm out the country.
Every point you bring up in your video is true . . . .
Aww Tonya! What a sweet comment! Thank you so much ☺️🤗🤗
Well... on the other hand it scares me 😁 I’m still planning to go back to England at the end of my project, but you are right. Norway is a fantastic country! I’m sure I’ll miss it a lot.
How long have you been living in Norway for?
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel Came over in 1974 as a DJ working the clubs and liked it so much I stayed.
Eventually became the CruiseManager of a Norwegian cruiseliner (Color Line), but now retired.
Now my hobbies are skydiving, Formuler One racing and lying about my hobbies :-)
@@tonyadigitalnorway1155 WoW! I used to work with Colour Line 😁 the previous company I used to work for is there suppliers of tableware ☺️
Small world!
It’s amazing! Coming as a DJ! Wow! You’ve got an amazing experience 🤩🤩🤩
@@tonyadigitalnorway1155 my next video will be about ice racing in Norway 😈 what a cool experience!
You are right .. there are so many amazing outdoor activities in Norway all year round 😌
Lies

Infrastructure ✅
Healthy✅
life is good 💯💯😃
Aww Pratik 🤗🤗🤗 thank you so much 🙏🏻🙏🏻
healthy? Obesity rates are among europe's highest
As someone who grew up here, andsometimes felt the country is boring with people who are cold, it's fun to see your appreciative view of our country
Your country is gorgeous! After living in 5 countries, Norway is the first one I’ll actually miss a lot when it’s time to live 😉
Amazing place! You are so lucky! Keep it this way please 🤗
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel thank you, Anna! I’m sure it’s the fact that you know how to enjoy all we take for granted or fail to appreciate! I think the country won’t be any less gorgeous now that you’re here 😉
@@halvardwidere8084 aww thank you so much, Halvard! So kind of you 🤗🤗
Next weeks I’ll be showing how to have some crazy fun in Norway winter time 😉 from Ice Drifting to Arctic Circle 😁
What an amazing country you have ... limitless ideas for having fun even when it’s the Polar Night 😁
Such a cool channel I found! This video makes me want to move in Norway from Uk . It looks amazing.😍🙌🏼🇳🇴🇬🇧
Most Scandinavians speak excellent English. Some of the best English speakers for non-native speakers. Also films aren't dubbed and as you mentioned English is learned from a young age.
So true! Cannot agree more ☺️🤗
It's not related to not dub the films
@@giuliom3564 It is.
Great as always!
I have seen a lot of your vlogs. I think you look so healthy and happy. Better than your first vlogs. I see you feel good. Thank you for your sharings❤❤
aww.. As a norwegian this warms my heart! 🇧🇻
My greatest pleasure! I’m so happy to be a part of Norwegian society for a few year 😉 amazing country! Great people! Well done you 🤗
Yeah Im finland and love our neighbor norway alot
@@Rambo43360 aww hello hello the happiest country in the world 😉🤗
Can’t wait to visit you again 🙌🏻 hopefully soon
Norway is incredible country 👍
Nice Video Anna, thanks for sharing. I think that Norwegians know what to keep and what needs to be let go of. Thanks, Steve
Thank you very much, Steve! I totally agree ☺️ everything seems planned perfectly here
Have a great week ahead 🙌🏻
We don't build tunnels, we just remove rock to create a hole through the mountain. Norway's bedrock is mostly very hard so engineers use dynamite and often there is no need for any metal or concrete support.
Thanks for the video
That’s so cool I didn’t know they’d have British channels I love that!
Thank you for this video
My greatest pleasure 🤗 happy to help
Very informative vlog ♥️♥️♥️ thank you for sharing 😊
Thank you very much, Honey Bee ☺️🤗🤗🤗
I’m so happy you enjoy it.
Have a great weekend ahead 🙌🏻
Norway's official and main language is Norwegian. But, yes most Norwegians can speak English. It also has to do with the fact that most English TV series and Movies have Norwegian subtitles rather than being dubbed into Norwegian language. The only thing that is being dubbed into Norwegian from English are typical childrens things, such as Disney etc.
This is a very good point! Exactly, being an expat in Norway I can watch local tv and even choose the English I prefer today - American or British 😁 actually I’m also reading Norwegian subtitles- it’s such a good way to learn and practice the language even at home.
I totally agree that it’s such a great idea to translate children’s programs into Norwegian. They have to master their own language first and then become fluent in English too 😁
Have a great weekend ahead! The weather seems very nice these days 🙌🏻
Hi
Thank you Anna🖐
My pleasure ☺️🤗
2:23 I learned A LOT of English by playing computer games in my youth, and I'm 47 years old now 😊 But yes, very few games have been translated to Norwegian, and the few that are translated is usually only the text (and subtitles), so kids will learn from them anyway 😊
As a Norwegian we take all of this for granted.
Really?? Ohh nooo.. you shouldn’t! Your country is absolutely gorgeous, unique and stunningly beautiful! Nothing can compare to Norway 😉 quote me on this after I’ve seen more than 60 countries in the world 😁
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel yes, we do. I'm tired of living here, actually. That's not because I don't appreciate things here, but because I never felt like i fit in and it's boring here. But again, watching this video makes me appreciate my country more :)
No, i use it and like the outdoor things ;) so not say all..
@@halvardwidere8084 speak for yourself
top job.
I watch a lot of your travelling videos, I am surprised that finally you decided to settle in Norway out of all the beautiful countries that you have travelled to.
I ❤ my country ❣ Greetings from me in Oslo,Norway 🇧🇻
thank you so much, I hope I can come there as a specialty worker
Beautiful video and Norway looks amazing as is yourself and video. If only it wasn't as cold and icy..
Summer is so beautiful! 🌹
Thank you so much, Adi 🤗
Well.. believe me cold has it’s own charm 😉 I would’ve never though so before I had my first winter in Norway.
I love what Norwegian people tend to say: ‘there’s no bad weather, there are just wrong clothes’ 😉
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel Great way to look at it, I love that positivity 💞
@@xperi3nces thank you so much Adi 🤩🤗🤗 I’ll do my best not to disappoint you 😉
Have a great week ahead !
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel aww, Thank you, very sweet, I'll look at more of your videos to learn what I can. Will send my thoughts along the way.
Just keep enjoying what you do & you'll never disappoint, start with that within & then us outsiders will hopefully be truly able to appreciate your time and work! 💞
@@xperi3nces thank you so much Adi! I’ll try to show you much more of Norway ☺️🤗 where are you from?
Hello, I am happy I found Yours channel😊 I would like to learn English and I like you speak not too fast, I can understand. I will see yours video!!!! It is interesting 😁
I should be moving to Norway from France this summer!! (if the pandemic allows me to do so)
I am sooo excited!
From France 🤩🤩🤩 wow! This is so interesting ☺️
Are you coming to Norway to study? Don’t forget to bring a spare luggage of French food with you 😁
Yes. Everything should be much easier closer to august 😉 by September we should be fine here.
And welcome to Norway 🙌🏻
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel yes, I’m going to study in Oslo !! Haha I’ll save you a baguette ;)
I’m happy to hear that, I look forward to moving in and getting to know Norwegian culture ^^ 💞

@@barbarariviere7548 great! Let’s keep in touch 😉 give me a shout if you have any question or would like to grab a coffee in Oslo 😁
We have all of those things in Alaska too.
You are lucky to live in the city you live in. I lived there too, many years ago. Now I live in the middle of the woods...literally...talk about quiet. :D
About the language. Here in Greece we follow them same system for English in our education system but the results are not the same.
We also love the western pop culture, we don't have audio translated movies but also these don't help enought.
So we go to private English schools in order to get a certificate for our skills and in that case if you don't use the language then you have to cry for the money you spent in the past to learn English.
Different mentalities!!!
Anna I .love your shown no doubts Norway is in my ancient family History. king Harold was the one who's in our family book 1060-1066. I really admired him
In finland here is such an amazing water too and its not in bottles always. But i have never tasted norweigian water so idk if its better or not
Great video and commercial for Norway, Anna, but you forgot to mention all us hansom Norwegian men as one of your reasons ;)
And all the gorgeous women too of course :)
So true! ☺️ talk and very handsome and beautiful people indeed 😉
Fresh air, regular outdoor exercising, usually healthy diet and strong genetic did the job very well!
Love Norway
Norway is a gorgeous country indeed!
You are funny and charming. Enjoy Norway. You,r welcome :-)
Aww thank you so much ☺️🤗
Most videos I have watched about Norway 🇳🇴 they speak mostly Norwegian wow. My love for this country just got crazier
Aww thank you so much indeed 🤗 I hope you enjoyed my little creation 🙂❤️
Ur creation is fantastic. I want to come but don’t know how 🤦♂️
i just love cold weather and how there is peace and quiet may i ask how it is for foreigners living there ?like how would it be for a person from iran?and how the laws are for imagination? thank you for the video love how cheerful and energetic you video is. keep up the good work.🙏🙏
Thank you 🤗
Life here is amazing ☺️ never had any issues .. immigration- I don’t know 🙂
1. I’m an expat, so the company took care of everything
2. I came with my British passport.
All the best 🤗
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel i can very much guess it is much easier to have a uk pass
best wishes for you thank you ms take care🙏🌹
Not all here in Norway understand English! I have some friends how only understand Norwegian!
Ohh wow! This is very interesting ☺️ but you know better for sure 😉
Maybe I was just lucky enough
Have a great week ahead 🤗
That's mostly true for older people. We old folks (according to my children, I'm old) didn't start learning English in school until the 4th grade. And we had only two or three TV channels, none of which were in English besides some occasional British shows. That has changed over the years due to both more TV channels in English and also English in school from an early age. So most young Norwegians today do speak English very well.
Very nice video. Hope you become an inspirer that more people from the UK want to settle here. We have plenty of space. Wish you all the best.
Thank you very much Glenn ☺️ I’m a very temporary guest in Norway 😉 just one year and I’m changing the country. Might be Italy next 😁
That’s why I’m enjoying Norway every single day. Gorgeous country! Fantastic people!
Thank you so much for keeping it this way ☺️🤗
Yes it is 😊🙌🏻

@@Oliver-Travels same to you Oliver ☺️ I wish your channel a great success! Love your vibe, love your way to present things 😉 shall we organise a little collaboration when current situation gets better?
I have so many questions to ask a real Norwegian, but my colleagues are too modest to go in front of the camera ☺️
Healthy 🏡
So true 🙂
Everyone speaks English, but for a license to practice my job it's not enough :( I would love to move there! BTW I've used to drink tap water in Italy too, and I do it in Germany as well
Well.. if it’s for work it’s definitely better to study and speak Norwegian then 😉 also if you want to move to Norway for settlement - no way with no local language, as in any other country.
Tap water in Norway has a great taste! I traveled around more than 60 countries. Never had tastier water than here 🙂 you should try it yourself when you are next time in Norway, Silvia 😉
We have the same jacket from dope! xD
Great minds think alike 😉☺️🤗
I have to admit, it’s a great jacket!
Top Gear reruns!
🤣🤗
That looks like pretty upper strata accommodations even for Norwegian standards. Most here in Norway live more modestly.
Well.. most in Norway live with their families. I’m an expat in a different country and my company is trying to compensate the absence of my family with better living conditions.
Shall we swop? I would love to have my family here instead of living in a large house 😉
Hello Anna! About reason nr.1 - it’s not true! ALMOST all Norwegians can speak english!. But you’re welcome to Norway👍 best regards
Aww thank you so much indeed 🤗🤗
I’m just sharing my own experience 😉 for the whole year I didn’t meet anyone who would not speak English 🙂 maybe I was just lucky ☺️
Life in Norway is good, some sour apples there is compared to other places but all in all, it is pretty good, saying that as a Norwegian, but seen a lot of the world both in a good way and a bad way, I think it depends on the person who wants to live here since we share the benefits in a way that works for all of us in one way or the other
Exactly, there are some pros and cons in every single place. It can’t be 100% perfect, but it can be just right for you 🙂
Balance is the key. In every aspect of life
English is widely spoken in Norway due to its strong connection to the American culture in general, but mostly because nothing on TV is dubbed. Everything is in its original spoken language with Norwegian subs. I might be wrong, but I would guess that more than half of every movie or TV show is American. Then there is obviously also quite a lot of Norwegian movies and TV shows. The rest is either Swedish, British or Danish.
Im from norway 😊 living in norway's oldest city tønsberg 😉
Fact is coz they are extremely intelligent ...im flying to norway in few days ..cant wait
Aww 🤩 welcome welcome!
I’ll be back in September 😁
How long for are you staying?
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel well i hope for long time but its a season job so will so what to do after... =)
@@kunta-kinte0904 aww that’s great! Season job is a perfect way to understand if it’s your place or not 😉 did you start learning Norwegian yet? 😉
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel haha no but i was acting bit in vikings tv show so ill think ill manage with people 😅 there
@@kunta-kinte0904 it’s just an advice if you are seriously planning to get settled in Norway 😉
I hope you’ll enjoy your experience so much! The country is really cool 🙂
Hah! I worked on a tunnell in 2018, can tell you all about it :)
it is nice in the silver city Kongsberg!
Thank you so much ☺️ oh yes! It is amazing indeed 🤗
So you have discovered Avocados!! Yeah it is super food for sure.
Hi Kurt! Good to see you 🤗
Well.. I can’t say I discovered them here .. but I wasn’t a big fan of them in London 😉 but they do work really nice with Norwegian salmon!
By the way, did you know that Norwegian salmon is very different from Scottish one? 😉
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel Well i fish for Wild salmon in Norway every summer in many rivers. And wild Salmon is so much better then farmed. But that there is difference between Scotish and Norwegian salmon "Farmed i presume" that, i didn't know.
@@The-Vega-Islands fishing for wild salmon summer time? That sounds so amazing!! What would be the best place to fish wild salmon? I would absolutely love to try this ☺️
Your country is truly amazing! I’m impressed how many activities you can do here all year round 😌
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel Around 450 rivers with Salmon in Norway, i think 340 was in 2020 open for fishing. practically every county with a coast line have a river big ore small. Now when it comes to fishing salmon in fresh water there are seasons and times when it is allowed to fish. it varies a bit but its normally from 1 of July to end of August. The best place well that's hard to say, some years the fishing is best in the north and next year it might be in the south. There are certainly some good rivers around Trondheim. Fun fact there is a salmon river in Oslo. you can get your Cappuccino served by the river. czcams.com/video/revfo6y-bRI/video.html
@@The-Vega-Islands ☺️ thank you very much indeed, Kurt! I will definitely research this subject! And I’m definitely going to film the whole process of me fishing salmon 😁 I’m sure it will be so much fun!
Actually in Norway I switched to flask coffee 😉
Yes we do...learnd from 3 class and up ;)
I would love to thank you for learning English and speaking so good! You make temporary expats’ life so easy in your beautiful country! Thank you so much ☺️🤗
har de endret? Vi hadde engelsk i første klasse på barneskolen
@@gullfeber Jeg er 63 modell ;)
@@VikingNorway-pb5tm829 ah
At number #2 they do not sponsor electric cars, they do not take taxes on them. Its not the same.
I must admit that I was very weak in English at school, in fact I hated school. But because of all the English programs on TV, I have gotten better, since everything that is said is translated. SO today I'm better than my roommate at speaking English, but she's much better at writing English! Here I use Google translate, SORRY !
I want to move and study in norway so bad in the next few years but I have no idea where to get the money to start from!!!! i have no family there and i’d need to pay rent and visa stuff, where should i get the money from?

I would love to learn Norwegian,
and go to Norway.. even though I am from the US.
Does anyone have any tips for a beginner? 🌿
Hi Ash ☺️
Depends on how fast you want to learn and what’s the most pleasant way to learn a new language you choose:
- library
- books / self studying
- online course / group or individual
- language school nearby
Plenty 🙂 you can also talk with native speakers on social media - start following Norwegian bloggers on Instagram - write your comments in Norwegian, start the conversation
Also movies in Norwegian before going to bed 😉
That’s how I was studying English 12 years ago and how I study Italian now 😁
Hope this helps 😉
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel Wow, thank you for all the advice! will definitely try these out..
@@ashleigh3602 my pleasure 😉 happy to help 🤗
you Live in Kongsberg?
Norge 😍🥰
Its sound more than wonderfull, but i have a question. Can i live and work in norway with no driving licence? What about the public bus transport? can i work in or near oslo and live outside like 1 or 2 hours away without a driving licence or do you have to get a driving license?
depends on what you`r work is, but if its an office job in Oslo or area around i would say the public transport system is pretty good, bus, trains and trams.
Well, it is a very good question actually! Norwegians love driving and every household here has at least 1 car. As the saying goes: "A simple way to shock a Norwegian is to tell him that you don't have a driving licence".
I would say you will be fine without it working and living in Oslo but when it comes to the weekend and you want to go somewhere to discover this gorgeous country - it might be an issue. As I don't think that you can get to endless hiking routs in Norway by using public transport only.
To get a driving license in Norway is extremely expensive. I would advise coming here having your driving license with you already. If it is a European one you will not have an issue driving here.
The public transport in Oslo and to and from Oslo is very good and usually much better and faster than driving your car when you go to and from work.
The rush hours can be a pain if you use your car.
Not having a driving license is no problem at all when it comes to working in Oslo or the areas close to Oslo, unless you want to be a bus or taxi driver of course ;)
But as Anna says, it can make it a bit more difficult to travel to all the great places you want to visit when you are not working.
But it is not impossible when it comes to most places if you plan properly before you start.
There are many great places you can travel to with trains or busses from the Oslo area.
It might take some more time than when driving there, but at least you can relax and enjoy the scenery while travelling :)
And if you like to be outdoors, there are lots of options close to Oslo all year and no need to travel far, unless you want to see or experience something special.
Which city you are living please tell ❤️

Some parts of Norway have bad ways to travel in!
Hmm.. which parts of Norway do you mean? I love difficult travel ☺️
So you moved during the Covid Pandemie this is intersting
Where do you live?
South, middle or North?
Exactly, I moved in May 2020. Norway is my 6th country I live 😊

Are you based in Norway?

Specially between England and norway
But you can be really happy and glad that it was possible for you
Gratulerer 🍀 I wish you good luck and that your dreams come true 🐞

You are right. It was quite challenging, I must admit 🙂 the paperwork was tricky but as soon as it was done - the rest went rather smoothly.
Thank you so much indeed 🤗
Same to you! Stay safe and have a great weekend ahead 😉
I’m only temporary in Norway 🙂 I came for work and as soon as the company I work for is satisfied with the result achieved - I’ll move back to England. Or to another country 😁
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel Than good luck on your way. Normally the Company has to do all this for you if they want that you work in another country. For a privat person it is more different
Enjoy Your time and make a lot experience
But you are not from London I supppose? Anyway, welcome to Norway🤗🇧🇻
Aww thank you so much ☺️🤗🤗 I promise I’ll leave your country as clean and pure as I found it in May 😉
What’s the convenient website to look for a house in Norway? I’m interested in moving somewhere in Scandinavia after graduation.
FINN.NO
Yes, finn.no is the best hub for... pretty much everything. But be warned, housing is crazy expensive in Norway, especially centrally in Oslo and the big cities. You can find good bargains on rentals in Oslo if you're lucky, but if you want to buy you better start saving...
It very much depends on where you want to live and/or work. For example, renting/buying something in the centre of Oslo can be more expensive per m2 than in Tokyo.... 😬 but buying and living in the west or north of the country is cheaper. As several others have mentioned, Finn.no is a good place to star, both for buying and renting.
Also keep in mind that while living close to a possible future job can be preferable, many of the cities has ok to excellent public transportation from the suburbs and adjacent smaller villages/cities (Bergen and Oslo have very good public transportation, while for example Stavanger can do better, but it is nor bad either), so you really don't have to immediately plan for buying a car
@@theuniversewithin74 Not the one you replied to, but wanted to say thanks for the finn.no website. Prices look pretty good to me, but I'm comparing to western washington housing prices. On that finn.no website I found a 229m(2) house for 2.7mil kr which is equivalent to about 143$/sqft USD. My current home here in western washington (USA) is worth about $255/sqft (or 5mil kr) and the house in norway was almost 200sqft bigger.
Can you recommend good towns/cities in norway to look at for young families with kids? I work in tech industry and can work remote. My Wife and I have fantasized about moving out of this area as it's getting kind of crazy here! :) Thanks!
@@slandshark you won't find prices like that anywhere even remotely close to Oslo. You have the suburbs around Oslo, but they are almost as expensive. Drøbak is a really nice waterfront village, but on the expensive side, as it's close to Oslo and very popular. Fredrikstad is nice. Porsgrunn, Larvik, Stavern. If you don't care about Oslo, try Bergen or any of the adjacent areas, although it's very rainy. Stavanger is also nice. There's a lot to choose from, but have a look at those to begin with. 😊
Hello, Anna Good Day.
How are you?
long time well I would like to ask a few questions regarding the cost of leaving & more in as I am traveling by this year most probably after New Year by Happy New Year in Advance to you & your family.

All videos are from 2021 if any one is wondering
Where were you from before you were in England?
Hi Chris,
I was born in Moscow, lived in Switzerland, Italy, Malta. Settled in England in 2012 and in May 2020 was relocated to Norway to develop Scandinavian market 😉
Where are you from?
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel I was born in Stockholm Sweden. A Finnish Mother and Swedish father but have lived in Australia since I was 2 years old.
Ohh wow! How cool! I’ve never been to Australia yet ☺️ it must be amazing! How often do you visit Scandinavia? What’s your favourite country here? 😉
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel Since we came to Australia I have only been back once to Sweden and Finland. I prefer Finland. I love the customs, the culture, the people and the nature there. Finns are more friendly than Swedes.
@@chrislind57 seriously? Wow! Very interesting point ☺️ i personally find Scandinavian people very friendly 🙂 to be very honest with you, I feel like Finnish mentality and life style is actually quite close to Russian 😉 even food! Very similar. Especially if you compare Finland with St Petersburg and Murmansk.
Another cool thing, my Australian colleagues here told me that Norwegians tend to make more bbq than Australians! Can you believe this? 😁
I stumbeled into this video... I live only 90 km from you! Rjukan.
🤩🤩 ohh thats brilliant! Neighbour 🤗
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel I actually was riding my bike through there today. It was cold this morning, but nice on the way back! Neighbour isn't far from the truth :D

@@AnnaGoldmanTravel I'm going through there tomorrow too. If I see you, I'll say hi.
I HAD A COMMENT BUT ITS GONE NOW I WONDER WHY ????
I'm studying college in norway and live in it forever
Aww that’s great! Lucky you ☺️
Do you like it here?
Hi
No, Norwegians have been in good in English long before the internet. We still had mandatory english
Ohh yeah ! You guys are so impressive with your English 🤩🤩🤩
Such a pleasure to be an expat in Norway ☺️
where did you live before England ? Coz you don't sound like you come from the UK
I was born in Moscow. Lived in Switzerland, Italy and the longest part of my life in London. Having British passport and paying income and property tax in Britain, not to mention working for British company does make a person British 😁 if you know what I mean
I agree with everything you said except number 4. Roads are not good.
Pls, how receptive is norway to blacks of African decent? I hear Norwagians are not so friendly, that is difficult to make friends in Norway. How true pls?
Norway is one of the most tolerant countries in the world. I’ve never seen any gender, religious, national or any other type of discrimination.
If you are honest, positive, easygoing person, you will make friends in any part of this world.
So my answer is no, this is not true. Norwegians are friendly and if you really want to, you can make friends in Norway.
Hope this helps 🙂 have a great day 🤗
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel yes, this helped a lot.
I am convinced on moving to norway.
thank you.
@@viktorsamuel4025 great 🙂 happy to help, Viktor
Good luck, Victor 🙂 I wish you all the best with your relocation 🤗
Sadly we have a few racists in Norway, but compared with most countries in the world, you should experience very little racism here.
Most Norwegians can be a bit reserved, but we are not unfriendly at all.
Most Norwegians are also not shallow like many in the US and UK are when it comes to "friendships".
When you get friends here in Norway, you most of the times get proper friends that are warm and helpful.
We don't "hoard" "friends" here in Norway.
We are not friends after 10 minutes of small talk.
If you want to make friends in Norway, you should not "jump" them and act like a salesman trying to sell them a hoover.
Most Norwegians react negatively to people that are pushy and "aggressive" in their approach.
I don't know how you are and what country and culture you come from, but men from some African countries are often way to "aggressive" and show way to little respect when they approach a woman they like here in Norway.
Behaviour like that will quickly make you disliked here in Norway.
Meet people and be calm, warm, respectful and friendly and you will have a good chance to get good Norwegian friends.
And also a girlfriend/wife if you are single.
Oh great, everyone speaks English? Now I'm wondering why I spent the last few months learning Norwegian... 👀
To get your citizenship in the future 😉 you won’t be able to do so without speaking Norwegian 🤗
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel Oh okay, I see. Thanks! :) But like, if I just live in Norway as an expat, will communication actually be easier with Norwegian (because it seems like everyone speak English very well haha)?
To use picture of Horn helmets is very annoing and historic incorrect. That is only a costume from a german Wagners opera in The mid 9th century.
maybe you should tell your viewers how much you pay if you go to hospital in norway:) A heart transplant or a broken leg, or what ever you need the hospital for, will cost you about 390 kroner. Thats almost 40 usd. Noone in Norway have health insuranse, because we dont need it.
I guess she has to fight off handsome vikings all day long as norwegian men love brunettes.
I don’t like fighting 😁 no need to 😉 people in Norway are extremely polite and nice. I’m too busy filming and editing videos between outdoor activities 😅
Where are you originally from? You don't sound like a Brit. Do I hear some Russian influence?
I was born in Moscow. But having British passport and paying income tax in Britain clearly makes the person British 😁 if you know what I mean, of course
My Norwegian bf english is better than most American.
😡

Why is funny?
@@tobyandgarfieldyi2958 Funny Cause She speaks very British. But you can notice English is not her mother language

This girl is lying, see the prices here. It's disaster even if you have good salary

Guys 1kg of beef for 85usd, not even premium meat. Trust me norway is bad.
Trust me, your English is really bad. And so are your math skills.
We barely use any antibiotics on our animals and we have some of the best animal welfare in the world. It cost.
With this English u are speaking I am 100 % u are not from London even u are trying so hard to look like
So boring for me
Is it? Why so? 🙂 you don’t like hiking?
