What do expats in Norway appreciate most about the local culture?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they appreciate the most about the local culture in Norway. They wrote...
"The beautiful nature and the lush green surroundings. Although, I have to admit that it can get tedious sometimes, as I am used to the extravagant city life with skyscrapers at every corner and streets bustling with people. I love the seafood here. I like how people are very independent," remarked another expat who made the move to Bergen, Norway.
"So many things. The nature, the peace and tranquility, the community-mindedness, the pride Norwegians have in their home, their families, their communities, their nation; the fantastic quality of life here, the hospitality, the civility most people have, and lots of incredibly handsome, rugged men. :)," explained one expat living in Gjøvik, Norway.
