AboutRoy Helge Rasmussen Expertise I live in the southern part of norway and can find my way around most of the country. I will answer questions about social life, culture, language and politics to the best of my knowledge. I am not so good at travel tips outside the south-eastern parts, although I will try to answer.
Experience I live here and have been guiding members of my family around when they visit from abroad for years.
I am a 52 yr old woman who has much healthcare experience as a manager/administrator in hospital and medical school settings. I have been in charge of whole depts., and currently teach medical students in a well known medical school, although I do not have advanced degrees.
For over 20 years, I also have enjoyed a holistic practice where I serve clients as a healer. So, I've actually worked successfully in both "western" and "eastern" medical models for many years.
Also, I enjoy teaching and dabble in a few different languages. I also enjoy teaching children how to play musical instruments, i.e., clarinet, etc.
My fiance is a superb editor and proofreader serving customers all over the states.
We are considering moving to Norway after having fallen in love with all we hear and see of it - we have not yet been there.
Do you think we as a couple can do well enough to support living in Norway?
Thank you for taking your time to answer these questions.

Answer Honestly, no - I think that would be very difficult. But on the other hand - you need employment to move here in the first place - so if I am wrong, you'll do fine.
It is difficult enough as it is for locals to find jobs at the moment, and using "quack" credentials (if you know what I mean) will not exactly be the best stratagem to find a job in the healthcare system here. On the other hand, had you been a registered nurse, or a doctor, I am pretty sure they'd find a spot to squeeze you in (provided you took the time to learn the language first.)
