Thanks to my network on InterNations, I already had some contact persons to ask for support on coming to Oslo.

What Can You Expect from Expat Life in Bergen?
Bergen is a city with a rich history, but it is just as exciting a place to live today as it was in the distant past. The Bergen International Festival and the Bergen International Film Festival are two of the most important dates in the city's cultural calendar and are a must for those who are new to the city. Local people speak Bergensk, which is the German-influenced native dialect of Bergen. Often referred to as the street art capital of Norway, Bergen has a long-term plan to protect public artworks and ensure they can be enjoyed by residents of the city. Bergen is a great place to live for those who love the outdoors, as it has beautiful beaches such as one located on Lake Tennebekktjørna in the Nipedalen Valley, while there are also copious hiking and walking trails to explore.
InterNations is the largest global network for expatriates, with communities in 420 cities around the world. Meet fellow global minds in your city of residence or get to know local expatriates before you're moving or traveling abroad and never feel like a stranger. InterNations makes it easy for you to stay in touch with your expat friends, both online and offline, so you can grow your network of friends and contacts from all over the world. Whether they live in London or Singapore, InterNations allows you to be close to them even if they are miles away.
