Embark on Your Expat Life in Norway

Norway truly is a stunning country, with beautiful glaciers, awe-inspiring mountain passes and fairy-tale wooden churches nestled in snowy valleys. For the outdoor type it's an unparalleled country to explore — while the rest can just sit back, sip a warm beverage and enjoy the view. Not only does it have gorgeous scenery, Norway is also one of the fastest growing economies in the EU, and has a high standard of living. From burgeoning technology start-ups in the capital Oslo, to the big business of the oil industry in Stavanger on the southern peninsula, Norway is bursting with economic opportunity for any expat with the right skills and a will to s쳮d. With the right leg up, courtesy of InterNations and our friendly community, you can have a head start in getting to know the local culture and settling in without all the hassle. Knowledge about the best schools in your neighborhood, unique job opportunities and social events; all this and more will be available at your fingertips.

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 Malaysia or Spain, InterNations allows you to be close to them even if they are miles away.

Find New Friends Even before You Start Your Life in Norway

Norway is the perfect country for outdoor activities, with fishing, camping, hiking and other outdoor pursuits a regular fixture in Norwegian life. Through our busy and vibrant community you can easily find the right people with whom you can have a great time out in the wilderness. Or you can go and see an English movie, learn one of a wide range of languages spoken by our members or just relax and have a coffee and a bite to eat — it’s up to you, but you’ll find opportunities to do it all on InterNations. Just check out our InterNations Communities in Norway for a range of upcoming activities, from bike riding to Sunday brunches and more.
