      Well i understand you Cmrd if you dont live here :P We have those prisces here is for Norwegians since we earn much more in salary than in other countrys we have about 29,84 dollar for 1 hour of work and we work usually 8-10 hours a day that is why the prices is so high here it is based on our income! And of that income we pay about 24% in tax to the goverment so the rest we can use freely! And for that high tax the goverment offer us free hospitales, doctors all is free of no cost only a little fee we pay for this is about 10 dollar each time you visit one !
      And if you use more than 200 dollar a year in medical bills then you get a freecard and all is free no cost at all in hospitals or doctor the goverment pay all! even medicines is free too all pills and things is free of cost! And i find this really nice no insurance or anything do we need for our health the goverment pay for us :) Only because we pay a little more in tax than in other countrys it benefit "all" peoples if they are rich or poor it dosent matter!

    Heja! Thanks for the video, it was nice to revisit Norway and remember stuff you were talking about! When I studied in Tromsø I remember first thing that just stroke me your amazing nature! And how people treat it with respect and care. I loved that. Also, I was surprised to know there is almost everything available pre-cooked even the Christmas dish - Rødkål. Also I noticed that people are very sporty and fit, and there is a lot of outfits which are both comfortable and practical. People are very tall (majority) and I have never seen so much blonde people!...hmm, in general it was a very peaceful and nice experience. Being an introvert myself I found it pretty relaxing there. Cheers!

    @michaelfink64 5 лет назад +2

    A few differences between what you have told us about Norway and what happens in Australia: in Australia, the person offended against might say “Oi!” rather than the offending person. Usually this would be between family member or friends rather than strangers and is usually half joking. For example, if one friend pinched a chip from another friend, the “victim” might say “Oi!”, as in “Hands off!”, but you would not expect them to give it back or apologise; it’s just being playful. We have a similar thing to you at the end of school (after the exams in our case). We call it “Schoolies”. People go to the beach in Southern Queensland or Northern New South Wales, get drunk and party all night. Sometimes there are creepy young men that hang around, hoping to hook up with one of the girls. Often they are tradesmen (“tradies”: plumbers, builders etc) so, in this context they are called “toolies”. We have a similar snobbery to your chocolate thing with biscuits. There are some, like a Tim Tams that are unique and delicious.

    Great video! I believe there are many Norwegians emigrated to America, especially to Minnesota. The people remind me of West Germans as they seem to be good citizens, wholesome and well adjusted even though the governments over taxes the people. Unlike recent German history, Norwegians do not seem quarrelsome or a dominating people. Overall, they seem to be a get along and live and let live people.

    I really found it funny your pro tip for relaxing Norwegians is to drink socially...& maybe make a new friend lol. Also, that is interesting about putting bags on seats so no one sets next to you, wow very stange, yet where I'm from people usually did this to save a seat for a friend, not usually to seem closed. Sometimes elders might do this if they were weary of others. And, I certainly didn't know about tacos, us southerners also love tex-mex lol...but we get alot of Mexicans as well coming in...so alot of us have adopted it into our cooking.
