As soon as I new that I was leaving sunny Southern Cali to start a new life in Oslo, Norway… I spent countless hours on the internet trying to find any information I could to prepare me for my move overseas. I looked for everything from what to wear in Norway in the winter (a Southern California girl doesn’t have the “know how” to naturally live in a place where it actually snows in the winter!) to cultural etiquette that I would be encountering when I moved to Norway.
I was really unhappy with the results that I found on the internet, and decided that since I could not find these things for myself, that I would provide them for others once I finally figured some things out. Of course I didn’t figure everything out yet…but as I go along I wanted to help out others in the same situation as I was in.
So since then my website has evolved to a much more general genre, I wanted to still provide a place for anyone planning on making a move to Norway and for those (like me) who already have!
This is a place for anyone who dreams of living or moving to Norway, is planning on moving to Norway or has already relocated. Hopefully it will help you on your journey abroad!
