Gorgeous country you have there, stopintime. Kudos to the photographer too.

this thread only makes me romanticize Norway even more! I seriously would like to emigrate there after I finish grad school.

How much for Petrol (Gasoline ) per Liter or Gallon ?

I bet it is very expensive to live in Norway. Especially Oslo.

How much for a Big Mac ?

Gas 95 oct is US$ 2 /liter at the moment (almost $ 8 /gallon)
Yes, Oslo is among the top 5 most expensive cities in the world (I think I read that somewhere)
Average income is around $ 70,000.
I seldom eat at McDonalds, but I believe a BigMac is $ 6.

You're welcome

$8 a gallon for Gas .............WOW

Average income $70,000 , I guess that sort of makes things equal out.

Do you know how much a 1098 R cost in Oslo ?

1098 R is $ 65,000 (half of which is taxes)

Lovely countryside you have there!! I really miss living in Europe.

I went on a ride today as well, and ended up taking this pic at Chinaman's hat.

That's not a bad view to have to live with !

Are you asking for yourself? In that case ........ $:-\$

I really don't know for sure, Norway is officially closed, but I know that a lot of Americans work here and after a few years are allowed to apply for citizenship (maybe?) Marry a Norwegian, and it's all ok

Not me though

Do the Citizens of Norway have free Health Care How

How much was the Dainese Gran Premio leather Jacket you had pictured there in Norway ?

Yes, we don't pay for health care - but we are taxed to death, so there's no need for health care

The jacket is $600 and I think it will be mine some day

That's less than the Jacket sells for in the US !

Go for it .
