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...
"I appreciate the Norwegian's love of and respect for nature. I like the roundabouts as opposed to USA stoplights all over the place. I bike/walk, so I really enjoy that the sidewalks are separate from the roads and often wind off in completely different directions. I appreciate that Norwegians aren't easily offended. They have great food here as well. I also appreciate their lower crime rates. You can tell people really aren't expecting anything but the best in people they encounter," wrote a member who made the move to Stavanger, Norway.
