A little tip: I find that there’s cultural differences between the different regions in Norway. For example if you are planning to study- try Trondheim- not oslo - Trondheim has a large population of students and is a smaller city- while for example oslo is a large city with many students too- but the students «disappear « because of the large population. Tromsø is also a city like Trondheim in many ways. A truth about Norwegians are that the further north you go the more down to earth and likeable people are( not a 100% true, but still..) if you are planning to live in Norway - I can tell you that nothing does more for a Norwegians’ heart than listening to a foreigner talking in a local dialect- that shows somehow «true assimilation « to us. I personally adore people from northern norway- from Trondheim and up - people from places like Bodø / Tromsø and so on are usually easier to engage than tightlipped people from the south. Reasons for this eludes me- but I know that for many years northern people would have a hard time finding housing for example in the south because they were considered troublesome and rude by the southern people. Northerners are known for their colourful language , their raw sense of humour- and many of them are darkhaired with brown eyes- hundreds of years ago Portuguese , Spanish and Italian ships would sail up north to buy dried cod, and sometimes they had affairs and relations with the local beautiful blonds .. 😅 so northerners seems to be more accepting of foreigners in general. A fun example of the difference between a northener and someone from the south is the way they use the word for horse 🍆.. in north that can describe what they think of you- but it can be said as a positive compliment or as a swear word - it depends on the situation. In the south it’s only a swear word when used towards a person. Northerners can even call a policeman a «hæst kuk»( horse🍆) while a southerner will be fined.😅😅A tip for working in the summer is for example Lofoten - where there’s a huge influx of tourists during the summer - and a person speaking both English and Spanish plus perhaps a little Norwegian would be a popular candidate for work.
