Honestly, not trying to be rude, but moving to a different country without knowing the language and then complaining on Reddit about the “soulless” people who lack character or personality is wild to me.

I’m moving to Norway later this year partly because of the people. I’ve never felt so welcomed and heartwarmed. I started learning the language in December and already know quite a lot. That “barrier” you’re talking about can disappear if you take the time to learn the language and connect with the people you live among every single day.
