Dark Sides of Living in Norway

Hey everyone! Welcome to our channel. Today, we are going to discuss “10 Dark Sides of Living in Norway”. We will walk you through the dark sides of living in this amazing country and help you decide if it’s the right place for you. From high costs of living and inconsistent weather to social conventions of limited interaction with strangers – let's dive into some dark sides that often get lost when considering life in Norway. Stay tuned to find out more!
1. You will never be Norwegian
If you’ve ever been brave enough to visit Norway as a non-Norwegian, chances are that you’ve encountered the infamous “Viking Stare.” You know the one – it’s like the Norwegians have judged your worthiness simply from looking at you.
The food here is also something that us non-Norse folks struggle with. If your idea of comfort food is anything other than boiled cod or reindeer stew (aka lutefisk), then I hate to say it, but Norway may not be for you! Not only is this cuisine notably unappetising (to some) there's really no way around it either - but everyone also seems to eat "traditional" Norwegian dishes every single day - so don't expect any variety on the dinner table anytime soon.
On top of all these small annoyances however there is perhaps nothing more trying than learning how to speak Norwegian – an incredibly hard language even for those steeped in its culture. It is certainly one of the negative sides of moving to Norway.
2. Darkness
There are some dark sides of living in Norway that you might not be aware of. Take darkness for instance. With its northerly location, Norway experiences genuine polar night from late November to mid-January in some parts – that’s a whopping 8 weeks without seeing any daylight at all!
And if you thought those midnight suns were magical during the summer months, this kind of darkness could certainly feel like an interminable gloom settling over you. Just imagine 90 days with no natural light, try not to think about it too much or take on a gothic aesthetic - ‘tis best just brace yourself for it and accept your fate until February arrives!
