Hey y'all,

This is Sedona. I'm an American expat currently residing in Ålesund. Been here in Norway for three years now writing novels and taking a thousand job rejections. It's a tough crowd around here!

Anyway, we are looking to make the move from here to Oslo in the coming months to increase my chances of full time work. I'd love to make contact with any expats that can offer advise and contacts.

I can also offer new expats some pretty detailed information on the ins and outs of living with and functioning in Norwegian society.

Look forward to hearing from you!
Sedona

Hi Sedona,

Its nice to be in Oslo so welcome There are more people here and more things happening here hopefully your job search should be more easy. I lived in Stavanger for 2 and half years and then moved to Oslo. I like Oslo than Stavanger.

will be happy to help you out with any information you need. I am new to Oslo as well but I can share my experience and information.

Vivek
