@Wildlife Warrior not yet ☺️ but I would absolutely love to visit your country one day! So many amazing places to visit .. I don’t even know where to start with 🥺
If you keep making as much progress as you have made in the last 12 months there is no reason you can't make vlogging your full time job and only job. Keep up the great content x 👏👌👍
Love the information on here, Norwegians are so down to earth, Anna's English is terrific, and she speaks so well, and so naturally, she could be on a TV News Team, she's great!
It is all so absolutely beautiful and amazing. Thank you for showing us such lovely things in this video. The BBQs by the lakes - there are BBQs like that in some country places here in the UK. I have seen them in the New Forest in England and at the foot of Bennachie (a mountain) in Scotland.
Very impressive! And thanks for saying "Gratulerer med dagen", it means a lot for us Norwegians. For those who don't speak Norwegian, it translates to "Happy anniversary (day)" when relating to our Constitutional Day, May 17th. But it can also mean "Happy birthday" if you're celebrating a person's birthday.
I wanted to learn some basic facts about Norway before to go there for a stage and this lady made me fall in love with it. It s really a nice video, thank you Anna!!
Anna is Awesome!! love her videos and massive enthusiasm!! i will be making my first trip overseas to oslo to explore my norwegian heritage in August!! \
Actually I have followed you since your subscriber was about 500. And I'm very glad because your channel's progress is amazing. Why? Nothing else but you give very important and clear information. Keep making video, Anna !
Hello, Anna! Interesting video! Yes, fjords are very beautiful in Norway. Norwegians are good in skiing. Today is by the way ice hockey match Finland - Norway...
@@elizabethquainoo4624 next year? Ohh great! Next year will be fully open Norway 🤞🏼🤞🏼 as we all used to know it 😉 You should definitely prepare in advance for the next year’s National Day Celebration! I’ve got a feeling next year it will be massive 😁 to compensate for these 2 years - 2020 and 2021 when the majority of attractions are still closed
You did a very good job on research of facts about Norway 🇳🇴 well done 👏 What made you so fascinating about the country? Just curious about it Have a wonderful 17.Mai celebration 🎉🇳🇴🍰
wow i had no idea norway was the reason japan used salmon. i couldn't imagine sushi without both tuna and salmon! and I have a friend that owns a famous sushi restaurant, too.
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel ya! she says it is not yet a "staple" fish in japan and usually grilled, but in America I think it is at least as popular as tuna. what is your fav. sushi? mine is eel, but that is cooked, so it would be tuna, then yellowtail, then salmon raw. i could eat sushi every day if I were rich, lol. i look forward to fishing when I move to bergen!
@@c.ladimore1237 aww same here! I would also eat sushi every day if I could 😌 but you know.. raw fish everyday - not a good idea . I love everything spicy actually- like spicy tuna and spicy salmon, then I’d name octopus, squid and scallops. I’m a massive seafood fan 😁 In Bergen sushi was sooo good by the way! So fresh and the variety was amazing! There’s also legendary Fish Market in Bergen 😉 it was closed when I was there due to current situation.. but I’ll definitely be back for it 😁
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel i know! crazy. i saw a few other videos about it closed and it was so sad. if (when) i live near city centre bergen I will be going there every other day! not for raw each time as you said, but fresh!
@@c.ladimore1237 absolutely! You definitely should ☺️ I’m sure there are so many cool places in Bergen! Lots to discover 😉 My advice, keep learning and practicing you Norwegian if you are planning to move here 😉 it will help a lot when you get a job here 🙂
hey Anna love your content tx! but i must say Magnus Carlsen didnt toke the title from Kasparov (Kasparov was his trainer for some period), but Anand , an Indian GM. and btw i am going 2 Norway in less then 1 month cya there :)
@@bjrnerikhagen7452 why just kids? 🙄 I was using it quite a lot last summer ☺️ I love the infrastructure around the lakes and rivers in Norway! Well done, guys 🙌🏻
In Australia there are gas powered bbq at a lot of small parks in the cities and at most camping grounds at National Parks; is Lake Baykal not in Europe?;
Anna nice to see you again your videos are still detailed and fun to watch. I have this one question, is it possible to travel over to Europe once you come to Norway as an international non-eu student?
Good question!! Well, you better check it with immigration companies - Norway is following some rules of European Union but I’m not sure how’s visa situation 🙂 I know that to come to Norway as international non-eu - you’ll need Schengen visa
Norway is not a member of the EU, but a Schengen member country. If you get a Schengen Visa (which is what you get when applying for a visit to the EU), you shouldn't have any problem travelling in Norway (or the rest of EU/Schengen).
Norway's fishing community is the best in the world ;) We are all descendants of fishermen. My best fishing memories are from Hitra. Look up Lofoten and Hitra to see about salt water fishing. Also i've gotten giant pikes in freshwaters everywhere.
Wow! Unbelievable! Income and wealth of everyone is published. Should do that everywhere! Especially in the USA. I think it would really shake things up and encourage reform
Galileo Galilei may have been ahead of his time, but he never managed to be an astronaut (or even a kosmonaut) - he stayed firmly on Earth as an astronomer, discovering the first moons of Jupiter. In addition to the Oslo tree in Trafalgar Square in London, trees are also donated to Aberdeen, Grimsby, Kirkwall (two, on ouside and one indise St Magnus Catherdral), Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and Sunderland. The Nowegian royal family's rrots do NOT go back to the 1200. The royal line died aout at about the time of the Kalmar union in 1397, when Norway, Denmark and (for a while) Sweden went into a union. After that, the royal line was the Danish one, which was not related at all. The present family is an offshoot of the Dano-German Glycksburg-Oldenburg house (which has married into a few of the royal houses of Europe: The Greek, Russian Romananoffs, the British, and Norwegian), established as Norwegian royals in 1905.
Never leave trash. I can't stress this enough. Norwegians WILL at least call you out on it or get angry with you. This is usually how it is in general, but especially if your hiking, in a park or other public areas. It's very frown upon! There are usually bins everywhere you go even on remote trails, so do yourself a favor and use those. Also not picking up droppings after your dog is considered equally bad. Norwegians also put a lot of effort into sorting out trash for recycling. Recycling is considered to be important and it's expected for you to do so in your household. It's normal to have a different container for each type like glass and metal, plastic, paper and cardboard, organics, etc.
What if you are originally from another country, but want to take part in dressing up? If it is appropriate and allowed for someone from a foreign country to do this, do they just pick a favorite or does someone local pick for them?
About Northern Lights, back in the old days people in Norway used to scare their children by telling them stories about that the Northern Lights were the spirits of the heavenly realm appearing in the skies, most likely a scare tactic parents used to ensure that their children would be home by the time of dark. Stories about ghosts, trolls and other nature spirits are very prominent in Norwegian fairy tales and folklore. xD
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel Yes, I remember my grandmother telling me when she was a kid she believed it to be the spirits of dead people, so she was told ''not to wave at them'', because then they would come down and take her. xD It's like little scary fairy tales and histories that parents back in the days used to tell their kids to ''encourage'' them to be home by the time it was dark outside, so the parents didn't worry about where their kids were after dark. xD
@@bobmalibaliyahmarley1551 thats really interesting! ‘Not to wave them’ ☺️ - this is actually cute. But yeah.. I see what you mean, for the kids it might’ve been terrifying to hear a story like this!
The reason why salmon from north atlantic is prefered to salmon is because of they have less to no parasites... I did read somewhere, that is probably also why japanese did not use salmon from pacific ocean.
That’s actually a very interesting point! Also Norwegian salmon is quite fatty 🙂 maybe it’s also a trick why people tend to love it so much. I personally find Scottish salmon leaner
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel I think it might be, but to be honest I don't eat norwegian farmed salmon, I like fresh wild salmon instead. Wild Salmon is less red in the meat (I believe they add some sort of colors to the feed) also wild salmon is less fatty, farmed salmon is lazy :-) so it gains fat
@@arcticblue248 how interesting! Can you buy wild salmon in the supermarket here? Does it have any special mark? Can you actually fish salmon in Norway yourself? Is this possible? ☺️
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel I live up in Finnmark at the coast, there use to be several people fishing wild salmon at sea but this year and god knows how long it will not be allowed to do that because it is so few wild salmon going up the rivers. Yes you can fish wild salmon in Norway, many rivers where they charge you a fee to fish for like a day or so ... many sportsfishing doing that. Its quite possible some specialized fish stores might sell wild salmons... people often prefer farmed ones because of the colors but I think wild ones are better.
Our Royal family is not that old, after we departed from Sweden and become our own country again there was a debate about if we where to be a monarchy or republic, it was desided we wanted to continue to be a monarchy. But we lack royal family so we had to ask our neighbours about it, we did ask the swedish royal family for a prince aparently they declined, but I also think we really really wanted a prince from the danish royal family. So we asked... and their prince wanted to become our king on one condition, we had to vote for it, so there was held a referendum and he won !!! so he took the name Haakon and become King Haakon VII and was democratic elected king !!! His son who came with him from Denmark became King Olav V, and is the father of King Harald V. They have all been great kings, and I believe they are also related to both the Swedish royal house, Danish royal house and British royal house.
Thank you so much! Good to know ☺️ but as you might know Norwegian Crown Price will be the first King of Norway who was both from both Norwegian parents 😉
Sorry to say, but we have had Kings all the way back to Harald Hårfagre in 865-931. So Anna is correct. But you could say that the Royal family of today has its ancestry from England. Also, England was invaded by Vikings and their bloodline is somewhat merged somewhere in time. I'm no expert, but it's possible that the English Royal family has some Norwegian or Danish Viking blood :)
about the public income data, i don't really care about it. it's kind of a thing where it involves everyone so its not a big deal. monetary value in Norway is not weaponized in any means and i think it's for the best. Also, a 16th fun fact: a few years ago when Americans had some military training near Kongsberg, some soldiers came across a kindergarten in the middle of their recess. As a joke, they began to have a snowball fight, but the kids completely overwhelmed the soldiers and they had to fallback. The kids tackled the Sergent to the ground and proceed with what we call "Kryne", which means you take a handful of snow and either show it in their clothes or in their face. The story was told from the Sergent in a post somewhere.
Two more languages are official in Norway. That is Kven and Romani. Kven is spoken bye descendants of Finnish immigrants and Romani by Norwegian travellers. But as said written Norwegian has two forms.
The thing people remember from the time in north of Norway wintertime when the sun never rises, is the light. Fun fact, northern lights name is as you said Aurora Borealis. The southern lights name is Aurora Australis. And the name of the phenomenon as a whole is Aurora Polaris.
Respected Madam, I have PhD in Chemical Engineering and presently Assistant Professor in one Institute in India. Can I apply for some post in any University in Norway? Because Norway is my Dream Country. Please reply if possible

How's the fishing in Norway? My ancestors were Norsemen I need to check things out from 800 -- 10 hundered- 1066
thank you so much, it was very useful information about Norway. but I'm interested to find a job there. could you please guide me?
In Australia there are gas powered bbq at a lot of small parks in the cities and at most camping grounds at National Parks; is Lake Baykal not in Europe?;
Anna nice to see you again your videos are still detailed and fun to watch. I have this one question, is it possible to travel over to Europe once you come to Norway as an international non-eu student?

Our Royal family is not that old, after we departed from Sweden and become our own country again there was a debate about if we where to be a monarchy or republic, it was desided we wanted to continue to be a monarchy.
But we lack royal family so we had to ask our neighbours about it, we did ask the swedish royal family for a prince aparently they declined, but I also think we really really wanted a prince from the danish royal family.
So we asked... and their prince wanted to become our king on one condition, we had to vote for it, so there was held a referendum and he won !!! so he took the name Haakon and become King Haakon VII and was democratic elected king !!!
His son who came with him from Denmark became King Olav V, and is the father of King Harald V. They have all been great kings, and I believe they are also related to both the Swedish royal house, Danish royal house and British royal house.
Thank you so much! Good to know ☺️ but as you might know Norwegian Crown Price will be the first King of Norway who was both from both Norwegian parents 😉
Sorry to say, but we have had Kings all the way back to Harald Hårfagre in 865-931. So Anna is correct. But you could say that the Royal family of today has its ancestry from England. Also, England was invaded by Vikings and their bloodline is somewhat merged somewhere in time. I'm no expert, but it's possible that the English Royal family has some Norwegian or Danish Viking blood :)
about the public income data, i don't really care about it. it's kind of a thing where it involves everyone so its not a big deal. monetary value in Norway is not weaponized in any means and i think it's for the best. Also, a 16th fun fact: a few years ago when Americans had some military training near Kongsberg, some soldiers came across a kindergarten in the middle of their recess. As a joke, they began to have a snowball fight, but the kids completely overwhelmed the soldiers and they had to fallback. The kids tackled the Sergent to the ground and proceed with what we call "Kryne", which means you take a handful of snow and either show it in their clothes or in their face. The story was told from the Sergent in a post somewhere.
😳 that’s amazing 😁 love this one! Don’t mess with the kids 😂
Nice video, but Galileo an astronaut? 😂

6:02 Galileo Galileo was not an astronaut, but an astronomer. There were no astronauts in his time 😂

Where in norway are you?
Two more languages are official in Norway.
That is Kven and Romani.
Kven is spoken bye descendants of Finnish immigrants and Romani by Norwegian travellers.
But as said written Norwegian has two forms.
Oh... you might just be the most perfect closet norwegian I've ever seen
The thing people remember from the time in north of Norway wintertime when the sun never rises, is the light.
Fun fact, northern lights name is as you said Aurora Borealis. The southern lights name is Aurora Australis. And the name of the phenomenon as a whole is Aurora Polaris.
