I plan to go to Norway from America in the summer vacation, but I don't know anything. I hope experienced people can help. The more detailed, the better.

Are you an American passport or a China passport? American passports should be visa-free, and China passports need a Schengen visa. With a Schengen visa, you can go to other Schengen countries or Norway.

The length of stay depends on the type of visa you apply for. I'm not sure.

Compared with other countries, people there are not very exclusive. They are much softer and gentler than Americans. They can speak Norwegian, but most of them are good at English. If they can speak English, life will be good. In general, transportation costs are more expensive. It's expensive to take a bus without a bus card, and every city is different. The plane is very cheap after the discount, and the long-distance bus is not cheap either (I forgot to take it once). Taking the train is not recommended. Food is very expensive. In fact, everything in Norway is very expensive. Its capital, Oslo, is the most expensive city in the world. Stay in a room for more than four figures a month, and you should be able to rent it below 5000Kr.

Norway is not an immigrant country, so it is not easy to stay there. Marrying a Norwegian citizen is one way, so is working. However, in the current global economic downturn, it is not only a question of finding a job, but also English is not their mother tongue, which is a relative disadvantage in finding a job. You can also apply for graduate students and doctors there, and naturally you can stay for a few years and then find a way.
