I've reconnected with extended family in Norway. I'm in the U.S.
Norway is difficult to immigrate.
I looked into it. I personally would like to continue working as a Paramedic and I've actually been on a Norway ambulance for a ride along.
In order for me to work I would be required to do all of these things:
Pass a language test
Pass 3 separate medical exams that are all in the Norwegian language.
Unfortunately, I'm not motivated enough for all of that.
Luckily, I'm in one of the best states in the U.S. and see zero reason to relocate for the remainder of my time on Earth. Which, climate change may make it just a few more years. Or, even possibly WW3.
What state? Asking for a friend who lives in Florida.
Massachusetts consistently ranks very high. Unfortunately, it's very expensive.
There are pockets of areas that might have low enough cost to buy, but, significant distance from Boston.
