Hi there 👋😁
My name is Marita and I live in Oslo, Norway.
I am a UX and graphic designer, makeup enthusiast, fitness junkie, foodie and dog mom.

I love sharing my everyday life in my full day of eating vlogs, do some challenges and recipe videos, but most of all I love to have the occasional cheat day. 🍩 Once the world is back to a more normal state, I will also do a bunch of travel vlogs so stay tuned for that! 😄

If you want to send me something I have listed my address under the info section on my channel 😊
Congratulations! Can’t wait to see it properly when you move in. All the apartments in Oslo are absolutely stunning and so clean and modern. Wow.
Thanks 😁 I know! Having a nice home is very important here as we spend so much time inside 😆
@@MaritaKvam Excellent video.... shows many apartments and goes to the point: area, price, bedrooms, good images, etc.

No problem! 😄 Thank you for the kind comment! ❤️

Thank you so much!! 😄❤️
Congrats. You seem really excited. Prices are pretty high though :)
Thank you! I’m super excited!! 😁 Yeah, I know. That’s Norway 😅
Thank you so much for this video. And the ending restores my faith in humanity. If i ever sell a place i will definitely make sure to sell to people i know will appreciate it much like you :)
It was my pleasure! 😄 I know! So nice to know that there are still people like that out there! We will definitely do the same whenever we decide to move again 😊
Really great story!!! Of apartment seeking. I'm in America but have spoken with a guy who worked as a Home Guard for the Nation in Norway. His name is quite nice...Enjuve your new home. Mary and Martin .....
Congratulations! Thats so exciting, glad you got the flat you love x
Thank you!! 😁❤️
Yay; congratulations - happy on your behalf❣️🤗🎉
Weee! thank you!! 😁🎉
Åååå, gratulerer så mye! Fikk frysninger da du sa at du hadde fått leiligheten fordi jeg var i samme posisjon for norn mnd siden. Beste følelsen!
Tusen takk! 😁😁 Haha ja, det er så sykt adrenalin kick 😆 Gratulerer selv! 😄❤️
@@MaritaKvam Tusen takk!
Congrats! It's absolutely lovely:) But wow...what a process. It use to be like this several years ago in my city (real estate 'craziness') but it's SOOO not like that now. Good luck with your move. Sounds like you won't have any problems selling and getting a good amount for your current place.
Thank you! 😄 I know! Real estate craziness has been going on here for as long as I can remember 😜 Thanks 🤗 Hoping for a smooth process 🤞
thanks for showing us your journey :D cant wait for future videos
Can’t wait to show you more! 😁😁
such a beautiful apartment! god bless❤️
Thank you! ☺️❤️
congrats! I love Grunerløkka!!
Thanks!! 😁
Whoahhhh!! What a happy ending to such a crazy journey... Congrats you guys 😘
Thank you so much! 😄❤️
Subscribering from cameroon 🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲 in Africa
👋😁 Welcome to the channel! 🎉
Ni real person/family bids on a house light that. that is insane and unfortunately is trending in every country. It's some rich companies that keep buying them and out bidding people so they make people RENT forever
looks like the prices of houses are insanely expensive everywhere
very well made video. great job and love your house. its beautiful
I know! It's crazy that it has become like this 😓
Thank you! 😊
The apartment is beautiful!
Thank you!! 😄❤️
Woooooow! Your eyebrows are amazing
Thank you!! 😄
Cool! Thank you for your video! I'm currently looking for appartment to rent in your zone. May I get an reccomendation of an agency that rent houses? Thank you again for your help!!
Glad you liked the video! 😁 We usually don’t go through agencies here. Finn.no is the site where we find apartments to buy or rent. 😊 You can see everyone available in my area there and make contact on the apartments you are interested in.
MY GOD... I thought MY area in the US was expensive.. that is insane!
Haha I know 😝 Cost of living is high here as well though, but still... das a lot of money! 😬😣
That’s crazy on houses! Here in the US, only families who will live there (and not rent it) can put a bid in for the first 8 days, and even after that, preference must be given to individual/family owners (not the kind of developers you described; only those who would fix it and sell it to another family kind of developer).
Where in the US are you from? That isn't the case at all in Oklahoma. They don't care who bids on housing.
Not in Portland. Here developers and profit-before-people values reign. It's unsustainable and impossible to buy
Amazing video. And then someone say that life is expensive in Norway. You would pay more for apartment in many European cities....Paris,London,Moscow,Berlin, Munich, Amsterdam...even in Prague you have to pay a fortune to get an apartment. Prague for example has worst salary to sqm price ratio in whole europe union
Thank you! 😄
Oh! I didn’t know that! Nice to know we are not one of the most expensive countries 😅
Oh boy, here I am looking for houses for a VISA opportunity in Oslo and I hear "only 990.000U$" holy s.....
Haha sorry 😅 buying in Oslo is crazy expensive. But you can get much cheaper homes if you just look a bit outside of Oslo though 😊
@@MaritaKvam Can You recommend a website for doing the researchol or the best one with great filters like distance from centre and other types? Thank You!
We use a site called Finn.no. There you can find all homes for purchase and rent in Norway. However, I can't see if it's possible to view that website in English. Maybe you can run the website through Google translate in some way? Not sure 😅 You can at least check the site out and see if you get English in your browser.
Hi, congratulations on your new home. Can you please advise the areas in Zone 1 where one could find atleast one bedroom furnished apartment [for a couple] in 13000 Kr.? Like you, we love lots of light in the house and space...but struggling with locations to look at...
Thank you so much! 😄 That is very difficult to answer. I have never rented in Oslo before, so I am very unsure of what the different places cost here 🤔 Also it really depends on what kinda surroundings you would like. I am sorry, but it is really difficult to answer 😅 Also you might find it difficult to find a furnished apartment, as that is not common here in Norway. But you can find lots of cheap and/or free stuff that people sell on Finn.no 😊
Omg so this whole "omg lets' go buy a house/apartment RIGHT NOW" isn't just happening in Australia but all over.?! . The price of houses and apartments here in Australia have sky rocketed since Covid. Going way above the asking price. Same goes for rentals. If you want a rental and its advertised at $450 (a week) they're being rented out at like $500 or $550 because people who really want to live there offer the real estate agents more money on their application. Mind you this is all in AUD. Like there are at least 50 people at open houses on the weekends. My friend went to an open home to view an apartment the other day and he said there were 30-40 people waiting to view it. It's insane here at the moment. Never seen the housing market like this before!
Omg! That is insane! 😬 It has been pretty crazy here for the last 5 or so years actually, but it has been getting even crazier after covid! So funny that it is happening over there as well! 😅
Hi Marita, congrats on the place! What's the map used in this video?
Thanks 😁 The map is a Google map I made in their styling wizard.

guys where could i look for apartments online? someone help
In Norway we use Finn.no 😊
Good
Is there a less expensive area of Oslo?
In the city center the cheapest areas would probably be Grønland and Tøyen I assume, but those areas also have more crime.
Outside of the city center you can find cheaper areas, but the cheapest will always be the ones that are considered less attractive (as Grorud/Furuset and Holmlia/Bjørndal etc.) 😅 Bøler/Oppsal would be something in between where the prices are not crazy high, it's not that far from the city center with the metro and you can find some good neighborhoods there. Manglerud/Høyenhall is pretty similar also. Lambertseter and Karlsrud is a bit more expensive, but a great neighborhood. Me and my family have lived around there for years.
Quick question - Is Matt norwegian? His accent seems English?
He is half British and half Norwegian 😄
Hello! There is some information I would like to ask you about living in Oslo, can I? I'm thinking about moving :)
Of course! Just ask away either here or on Instagram 😊
I need an apartment in Oslo please help me.
Finn.no is the site we use, but I'm not sure if you'll be able to view it in English 🤔
I always amazed how prices here are high (tel Aviv and Israel in general) when at the same price i can actually buy an house when here i can barly afford a carton box!
Hii.... Hau aar you
