Hi Everyone,


Im Skatellyn, im from Philippines and im living here in Norway. There's a lot of culture shock ive experience here but good thing my husband (his a norwegian) explain me each of it. Norwegian people is very kind and they will amazed if you speak a little bit of norwegian language. Jobs here are really difficult most especially your a foreigner. I hope they accept foreign applicants.

Hello!


My name is Lennox, I'm South African but living in the UK for 7 years. My partner is Norwegian and we're planning to marry next year! I've visited Norway a bunch and really like it. I think it'll take some time to adjust to the cold but it's worth it.

I hope you're all doing well!
