what i love about norway is its all in reverse to what im used to.. the country is really clean.. i never seen the sky as blue as it is in Norway - and it was an ordinary day! the air is clean.... probably with the ratio of trees to people, trees are winning... they are very efficient with their waste management that in my first time in norway, my then-bf-turned-husband had to teach me what trash goes on where, lol.! when you go to the stores, you can go do your shopping and be on your way home in under half an hour.. in my country, half the time you spend shopping is being on queue just to pay-up.. lots of hours in my adult life wasted standing on queue lines or sitting in traffic.... but norway or at least the part of norway i've been, its not normal to be standing on queue, and my husband's definition of "rush-hour" on the road is a fairly fast traffic flow in my country.. also norway is a very beautiful country, for a nature-lover, this is paradise! also good government benefits, you can feel where your taxes go...
really REALLY cold, it is difficult to travel around without a car since public commute can be expensive and not always available (in rural parts of Norway).. and in norway, 3 is really a crowd -- like literally.! lol.. so it can be lonely sometimes, if you're used to a real crowd.. :(
it is home :( my family and friends are there...
what i hate about the Philippines?? hundreds of hours of my life wasted sitting in heavy traffic... long queue lines... everyone have trust issues, coz we constantly have to be smart enough not to be scammed by others for money... extremely corrupt government... pollution and poverty everywhere... over population
