When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Norway, they said...

"Extremely pretty, very little work, basic infrastructure, no crime, in my case, the best neighbour in the world, probably.

There is a woman who works at the local tax office who is a demon! She has achieved things on her own for me that have defeated the rest of the Norwegian system," commented one expat who made the move to Skei i Jolster, Norway.
