Yeah, not really sure how it works in either place, we're all screwed by the guys at the top anyway! I don't think it's a good situation to be in sadly, no matter what the circumstances. I'm a bit out of my depth this subject though, I'm generally ... Read More

I wasn't talking monetary value, though I guess that's how I've worded it, but my being able to access it as a foreigner, there's a lot of horror stories over people who have lived and paid taxes here for decades but when something has gone wrong ... Read More

When I'm in Norway I'm in Sunnm酶re, 脜lesund. I'm afraid I don't know anything about housing there or the rules for it though... sorry, it's not got a huge student population like Trondheim or Bergen so I can imagine renting is more difficult, have ... Read More

I started learning Norwegian from a dictionary on ebay, and embarrasingly enough Norwegian Harry Potter books and the accompanying audio book, I found phrase books/ courses pretty naff. I also spent a lot of time writing out lists of words- food, ... Read More

I have been through Mo i Rana as my partner has family from that area: it's a fairly smallish town in a very isolated part of the country, very much 'jumping in the deep end' of Norway and it's culture, it's a good drive to a 'big' city (6 hours to ... Read More

Trying to find the names of baking ingredients drives me nuts in Norway, my fairly technical Norwegian does me no favours either when standing in the middle of Kiwi trying to find cake essentials! :P On the subject of baking, anyone know of a good ... Read More

Xmas fare by Gdadbrian

After living here on and off for 26 years, I can no longer find British food here anymore. At present my main concern is of course Xmas. Other things are un-smoked bacon and sausages, and pies. Anyone who can help please let me know. :|

Lostintranslationviking

It's notoriously difficult to get hold of British foods, I've found a shop in 脜lesund that sells cadbury's while the Asian supermarket sells ginger beer.... no chance on other stuff... I've started making a lot of stuff from scratch but had severe ... Read More

Oof that is a tricky one, I completely relate to many of the points raised here but am in an opposite dilemma- do I stay in the UK or move to Norway? Having lived and worked with Norwegians for the last 5 years and being together with my Norwegian ... Read More
