Your time in Norway just got a whole lot better.
Many internationals in Norway report feeling disconnected and a lack support.
#1 (or not?)
Norway is regularly ranked as one of the best countries in the world to live in, but in 2023, it was ranked as one of the worst countries for foreigners to live in.
800,000
immigrants live in Norway, but according to a 2021 study, they experience greater loneliness and exclusion from society than the rest of the population.
