    Ah, welcome to the Nordics!

    Hard as fuck to get in, or so I’ve heard.
    The shipping might be slower than you’re used to, but we check of on the rest.

    See you soon?

      I wish I could see you all soon. I’ve looked at it a lot over the years, not just when shit got bad here. And would honestly I would love to live there. Looked hard into Norway for awhile and talked to Norwegians in their subreddit, but the hardest part would be getting a job as a foreigner as it sounds like jobs are very heavily weighted towards “who you know”. Since I’m not the most socially invested person and a foreigner, the Norwegians I talked with made it sound like it’d be problematic.

        Yeah it’s tricky, but not impossible. We are small, but not small enough for most jobs to be handed out based on nepotism.

        I’d say the main hurdle is language. If you don’t speak Norwegian, or another Scandinavian language, the selection of jobs shrinks considerably.

        If you actually wish to move, I’d recommend looking for jobs on Finn.no and apply when something relevant pops up.
        Being non-socially invested doesn’t disqualify you.

        Let me know if you’re serious and want some help.
