What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Stavanger. They wrote...
"The medical system. Medical care is very important and I pray that nothing more serious than what we have already gone through happens to us while we live here," said another expat in Stavanger, Norway.
"Some of their driving rules are backwards from those in the US, such as "yield to people on your right, except in roundabouts". People have stopped and waited on me multiple times when I was pulling out of the street my house is on. I wish people were more friendly and more chatty like Americans. I always say "excuse me" if I bump into someone. I have the impulse to smile at people I pass while walking, or to make a comment to a random person, such as "cute dog"," wrote a member who made the move to Stavanger, Norway.
