Blimey, that was speedy response! Thanks so much. I would looovve to move to Norway. He is a mental health therapist counselor , and I have a masters soon, hopefully, PhD in entomology.
I, personally, would not mind taking a lower skill job at first, though a job in my career field would be preferable. We have U. He is not, but he would be motivated to learn Norwegian dialects. Thanks for this post. I spent 9th grade in a very small Norwegian town Andenes in the Lofoten Islands. The entire school just switched into English for my time there. The people were very kind, but not exactly friendly until they got to know you. The food was pretty horrific unless you really really love boiled potatoes and boiled cod — a rare and special treat was having some bacon grease to pour on.
The nature, the lifestyle. Every single day you can see something that touches your soul. Anyway, my step-father is a natural born Norwegian citizen. I wonder how hard it would be to emigrate. I have been google-surfing from Nordcap soutbward through Norway. Scenery is most breathtaking and the Northern region seems benign as to other lands of these latitudes.
Every so often I see communes off the highway. I was even able to tour through one of them. Wondering, what is the deal with the communes? Are the provisional for certain economical classes of people, are they ethnocentric? They vaguely remind me of coal towns of northeastern Pennsylvania. I probably would just pick whatever and wherever job crosses in my way.
Silvia, interesting blog and thanks for writing it. I think I can get the hang of it quickly especially if I give it a little effort. Do retirees have a chance??? I want to live in a place without an economic caste system. That is the situation I am currently dealing with in Northern California, and it is maddening to see people judged by their means and not their quality of character. The materialism and superficiality is slowly excavating my inherent positivity and generous spirit; I fear there will be nothing left before too long.
How to address your Norwegian mail
San Francisco was the only place I found, so I moved here in But recently we have had a ton of East Coasters move in, chasing the quick money of Silicon Valley. Half of all license plates are from New York, it seems. My town has become homogenized, bastardized, and criminalized — so I must leave. To get as far away as possible, I am researching the places that are reportedly the happiest countries on Earth. Norway is one of the highest-rated, and your blog came up first in a Google search. So, congratulations! But with that high profile come the drawbacks; now you gotta deal with freaks like me.
And BTW, not that it matters for anyone looking to move to Norway hopefully , but I am not homosexual.
- Moving to Norway from the US – how are you able to live legally in Norway as an American citizen?.
- You are here.
- check money owing on car?
- 2003 corvette vehicle id number?
- Who can use the SUA service centre?.
- vital records and birth registry?
In any case… I forgot my question. Is that even a thing there, or are people judged by their quality of character and overall intelligence, as I believe they should? I have been thinking of immigrating to Norway.

If anybody has similar experience that would be great to hear from. Hello, I am Iranian and I intend to immigrate. Do you think that it is possible for me to immigrate to Norway and find a job.
2. Choose the right Norwegian university
In your opinion, what training and skills are appropriate for the labor market in Norway? Thank you very much for giving me time and I would appreciate if you can answer me. I apologize for your weak grammar. As far as the crazy Norwegian TV shows goes, well I am hooked.
There is a station I just discovered that broadcasts the train trip in central Norway. I am hooked!

My goodness, the county is beautiful. I have added that train ride to my bucket list. I am absolutely smitten with the train video. Would love to live in one of those small towns where the train stops. I could never give up my United States citizenship to do it, but I love Norway!!
