What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Norway?
We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Norway is like. They answered...
"I live in a huge former old peoples' home except I don't live in it. There's no work for me near the house and I don't live in Norway though I work there and pay tax there. 22 years in Norway and I've had a residence permit for about 9 months. Most expats in the area? Most live in "normal" houses. I didn't have much choice," said a member in Skei i Jolster, Norway.
