Newly arrived in Stavanger

Hi there,
I'm new in Stavanger and I'd like to make new friends and have some tips on life in the city. How about a drink somewhere to find if we can get along well with each other?...Oh, by the way, I don't speak Norwegian at all so far. If anyone can be helpful about this as well...
Hope to hear from you soon

Hi Dr C,
I've been here about six weeks, and I'm only just starting to learn Norwegian. You'll get along okay with English to begin with, but a course is a good idea if you're staying in Norway for a while? These look fairly comprehensive: http://www.aftenskolen.no/norwegian-cou … 36.no.html and http://www.fustavanger.no/search.asp?av … SPR|||1|1|
Do ask if there's anything else you need advice with... hope you have a great time out here!

Hi Dwade,
thanks a lot for your answer and tips. How are you getting with Norwegian after 6 weeks? Could you meet Norwegian people?
So far I've been busy at work and mostly see my colleagues... who are all French because I'm working at the French school of Stavanger! That's also why I want to meet people outside my work. Maybe you could still help if you know about how to meet musicians in the city. I'm a singer and also play the keyboard. Being part of a band could be a way of socializing. Any tip is welcome...
Well,again, if you have time and want to have a chat, feel free to tell me.

Bye for now
Nico

Id love to meet up! =)
