Hello everyone,

When you move in Norway, relationships with your neighbours can play a vital role in your well-being and integration. Share your experiences of the interactions and routines that punctuate your daily life in Norway:

Tell us about your relationships with your neighbours in Norway. Do you have any anecdotes to share, moments of solidarity or community initiatives that have touched you?

Are there any specific customs or cultural norms to be respected between neighbours? For example, is it normal to introduce yourself to your neighbours and invite them over when you move in Norway?

Do you have any tips or advice for fostering good neighbourly relations in Norway? How do you deal with the differences and diversities that can exist within the community?

Are there any initiatives to organise activities between neighbours, whether official events or spontaneous gatherings?

Are your neighbours expats or locals? How does this influence your experience in Norway?

By sharing your experiences, you enrich everyone's understanding of life in Norway and help many people to plan their life abroad.

Thank you all for your contributions.
