Every time I see these comparison videos, I realize that, although I am born and raised in the USA, I could very easily live in Norway. My ways of thinking and doing match the Norwegian way much more than the USA "standard". (Not to mention that the Nature in Norway, especially the western part, is drop-dead gorgeous!).

[@ubaidmalik01]

That is right 👏

[@pjakk84]

the nature in the north is very nice aswell ;)

Norwegians want their own distance, no one within our personal sphere. Maybe that's why so few have been infected by Cv-19, compared to Italy. We respect the distance of 1.5 meters, but look forward to returning to 5 meters. 🇳🇴

Bro i have watched all your videos. Love all the info and great work you are doing for new seekers who want to be in norway. Your videos are like "samandar ko kozay main band karna"

[@ubaidmalik01]

Thank you for motivating 👏👏

[@twobrotherscycleanda]

I'm an American dreaming of Norway and I would love to see apartments and their cost.

[@MessyMeep]

Good interview, but how did you get through that whole thing without even hitting on healthcare at all. Surely that's the biggest difference with being employed. That you are covered, regardless what job you take you aren't beholden to your company to provide healthcare so you are not locked in place by an employer's benefits package. Other than that really good =)

[@earthmamma85]

Norway sounds like the place for me

[@notaviking6997]

You should call yourself an earth mother, in Norwegian they are the same as a midwife

[@earthmamma85]

Not a Viking I did not know that. Thank you. Very interesting.

[@mumtaznunari881]

HI Ubaid Malik . I am living in Finland.I have seen your videos and these are very informative. I have been in Norway few times as a tourist , it is amazing country. I am interested to know more about the local people and how is social distancing ? How easily one will be able to learn language? I have many question to ask but I do not feel appropriate to write down here.

[@ubaidmalik01]

Culture and everything else is quite similar in scandanavian countries. You won't see marked differnces i guess since you also live in finland

[@Muchoyo]

If you have managed to acquire a working knowledge of Finnish you should have no problems learning Norwegian. Norwegian and English are fairly closely related, whereas Finnish is a completely different ballgame.

[@edagobobelieve1116]

Great content bro... at least I understood everything that was said 😁. 👍🏽👍🏽 so bro I actually have gotten admission to USN but still trying to raise the money to pay before June 1st and I’m praying and hoping the whole pandemic thing stops cos only than it can be possible to go to the embassy to apply for my visa and come to Norway. So please can you walk me through the visa application process? I don’t want to make any mistakes so I’d like to know every details so that immediately I make the deposit, then I can start and also how long it’s all going to take. Thanks

[@ubaidmalik01]

Hi, read here for the entire visa application process Udi.no It takes usually 4 to 8 weeks

[@inzemam5271]

Hello ubaid, is there any way i can contact you? I need some information about master's in Norway. P.S: Your videos have been really helpful for me to consider Norway as an option for my higher studies, thanks.

[@bjrnjensen7074]

Interesting comments, thank u for uploading this video! about Janteloven: I have heard about this for many years, of course. However, it has never stopped me from doing anything that I wanted to do. There were other obstacles, yes, but that is NOT because of this silly law. From my point of view, it is more or less a myth. You folks may agree with me or not. If you choose to live by this law , then you will become a victim of it. Your choice! I have NO problems with telling people what I have accomplished in life, I don`t see why this would be inappropriate- likewise, if someone tells me that he or she has a ph.d, why would I be jealous? it is so irrational! also; when it comes to chatting up strangers in the grocery stores or on the bus, maybe I am the not-so-typical Norwegian, because I do it quite often, very often open to chatting. Some small talk never hurts, guys! Of course, I could in theory also have a not-so-good day, be tired/stressed ,then I would be less likely to chat. Another thing is the language BARRIER. Yes, many Norwegians speak good or "fairly good English", but it depends on who you meet. After all, it is their second language. So just be a bit patient and helpful . This is probably the number one factor why Norwegians may come across as "reserved"- of course, some of us are, but also when we have to speak a foreign language, we may be much less spontaneous. Wish you all a nice stay in Norway! greetings from Oslo

[@OriginalPuro]

"Our diet is so different in the US" I don't think American's know what the word "diet" means.:P

[@Muchoyo]

Eller kanskje det er du som ikke kjenner betydningen av det engelske ordet "diet", som rett og slett betyr "kosthold".

[@amitsinghal6165]

Hello, What are chances of getting admission in Masters at the age of 41. Please reply

[@OhNoNotFrank]

I don't really think it's because we like to "preserve our own space", but rather a fear of trespassing your space or to bother you that makes us seem a bit standoffish. It's Janteloven in a nutshell. We're as social as any other animal out there, just shy. I just heard that the Norwegians were relieved now that the one meter distance rule for covid was lifted though, so they could get back to their usual five meter distance 😉👍

[@fazeennazeer9821]

Hey Ubaid! what is the 1-year university education requirement that comes with higher secondary education requirements for undergrad students to apply for Norwegian universities?

[@ubaidmalik01]

I am not quite sure. But i think one must have 13 years of education to start bachelor education

In norway no guns.People are more civilized.People dont brag about Norway being rich .People dont say they are no 1 as they do in US which is total lie.Transporatation system is well managed in norway opposite to US.Crime is 100% less then US.Percapita income is way higher then US and HUman development is uncomparable as US is way down!!So overall living in Norway is more benefitial to US citziens then living In US interms of peace, free education,good health care, better quality of life and better hourly wage!!

[@PronatorsaurusTricepsus]

Free healthcare dont equal good healthcare. If that was so we would never have privat healthcare aswell here.

[@PronatorsaurusTricepsus]

@Gayle Elizabeth Ive actually never heard of anyone in Norway going to the US for healthcare. Have heard of going to other countries for exprimental treatment though. But we have some really good privat hospitals here that people go to when they can afford it. I go to one. The cost for a normal doctor visit is maybe around 4x what you pay in "deductible"(i think this is the english word) at the public healthcare, but instead of waiting for months to get to see a specialist you are in within a day or two. Or when you risk sitting 12 hours+ at the emergeny Room you get in within a hour tops.

[@hansjoachimlarsen4294]

@Gayle Elizabeth Who travels to the US for healthcare - ?? I have ( almost) never heard of any Norwegians going to the US for health treatment! Who told You this - Donald Trump??

[@patriotretiree903]

@@hansjoachimlarsen4294 - There are actually quite o few foreign politicians and world leaders who come to the States for medical treatment. It is usually for a life-saving surgery, such as a brain tumor or a quadruple bypass. It may have nothing to do with quality; it may be for security and privacy reasons.

[@jrgeneide9902]

Avtually, there are more firearms per person in norway than in the usa. Most farmers have shotguns zand rifles and a lot of norwegians are members of the «heimevern» or local army and many are members of local firearm communities. We just dont shoot each other.

+ A lot is wrong. You must not take vacation for 4 weeks or 5 weeks if you are 60 years old. "Holiday allowance" is not 10% of your salary, but salary for the month you are not working - tax free. If you choose to work then you will be paid twice for that month. How much you wont to job its a relation between you and the company you work for. Only limit its 200 ours overtime every year - More if you are a keyperson.
