Just seeing this thread.
Op, it seems you're a frequent traveller?
That's very good.

What's life without exploring other countries?
It's therapeutic!

Anyway, so far, I've visited these countries: Netherlands, lived in UK for 8 years, Germany, South Cyprus, Turkey, Singapore, Australia and U.S.A.

Next year, Norway is the next country to conquer.
Not just visiting, but moving over for greener pastures.

Yeah I think I am a frequent traveler haha , I have been to over 20 countries for now , hope to conquer more next year.

You have along list too, when you eventually move to norway you should conquer the Scandinavian countries at least

Your best bet is to start a YouTube channel where you vlog your travels.
However, you have to be consistent to gain subscribers, views and consequently earn money from YouTube.
well said , it takes a lot of content and consistency to pull this, I personally tried but couldn’t pull it off

Yeah I entered the boat tour. I paid 240 dollars for me and my girl. It’s super fun and we did snorkeling plus other amazing stuff. I love traveling, since travel influencing is now a thing, I would like to make money while traveling.
the snorkeling part was scary because I watch too much Nat geo wild, hahaha, I kept imagining sharks and whales coming around . The high point of that cruise was when we went for lunch at on turtle island.

It means that your dad or mum and your stepbrother/stepsister's dad or mum are still together, as a precondition for you to claim sibling points.
but how is that possible? For instance my mum had me out of wedlock and then went ahead to get married and had other children, how would my mum and my dad still be together when she is now married to the father of my step siblings?

Traveling is life. I’ve been to 8 countries as I am currently touring Seychelles right now. I’m planning Europe next year. Uchboggy you should create a travel WhatsApp group or something.
. I was in Seychelles in August for honeymoon. I enjoyed it. Don’t forget to take those 90 euro boat tours they are amazing . Yeah I was thinking about the Whatsapp thing but no motivation

Hi.
I'm a frequent traveller but I'm always so scared of traveling to countries whose official language isn't English, so I travel to English speaking countries only. This has limited me a lot. There are so many countries I'll like to visit especially in Northern Europe and Asia but I'm scared because of the language barrier. I just can't picture myself in an environment where I can't understand a word people are saying.

Please, can you give tips on how to overcome the language barrier and survive and enjoy oneself in a country where I can't speak the dominant language


Sorry for late response, your post made me laugh , honestly it’s not that bad. The fact that English isn’t their official language doesn’t mean they don’t understand or speak English language.

The only countries where English has really been a barrier is russia �� And some Eastern European countries like Latvia , Estonia and Belarus

The rest of Europe like Northern Europe and Western Europe you will almost think you’re in an English speaking country


So please explore!!

Could you find out if they've given a letter to a previous applicant who was successful in his application?
Shouldn't be a problem though as long as they are registered as a financial services organization
yes they are duly registered and have been in business for years

460 is even low right now, the last time they went below 460 in recent times was when there was just one week between draws and that is rare.

You should do another investment and upload all. That's ideal.

Guys please I want to ask a question,

I have running investments with a financial institution (with valid investment offers) I started since like June for like 2/3 the value required for POF, now my Dad gave me the rest as lump sum.

Can I just do another investment with it and just upload all the investment offers as pof or do I just leave the one my dad gave me in my account and do a gift deed for it ?

I really don’t know, I have not lived in Bergen before but where I live is a smaller city and it was almost impossible to get a partime student job finn.no is my only recommendation

Again thank you for the valuable info. Do you know if it is quite easy to get part time work in Bergen? I know the language is important. Do you have any website you would recommend for jobs?

mrcodebreaker:


It takes like 2 weeks after registration for the money to be sent to you (according to what uis said, her uni might be diff) There is a limit to the transfer from the student account. I can speak for stavanger which is like 10k nok a week to be transferred to another norwegian account. I dont think you can transfer internationally from that student account (not so sure) because you cannot pay for stuff online with the card internationally or locally. But plenty restrictions with the student account just to ensure you are using that money for your upkeep in norway alone. maybe as you said having another norwegian account, transferring to it and then sending it back to naija can be a way but gradually because of the student account transfer limit. Anyone who lent her money should be patient.
. The kind of confidence you speak with ehhhh, one would think you’re speaking from experience.

It takes over a month at least for the funds to be available. Like @olujastro said , it depends on how fast you finish your police registration and get you Social security number then open a bank account, mine got ready in October (3months)

And again, there is no restriction when the funds get to your account, you can send any amount to any account anywhere you like

Friends, I got admitted for master program in linkoping university in Sweden , and also engineering design in university of Tromso, Narvik in norway.

Sweden is 2.5 million per semester while norway is free tuition.

Any advice will be appreciated.

My email _ oskydaniellyyy@gmail.com

Thanks

Which advice do you need again?

Sweden and Norway are like twins. It’s pretty much the same lifestyle in both countries. Social life is just a little bit better in Sweden because of bigger population. Cost of living is higher in Norway.

As for Educational standard I think norway is slightly better.

The 5m you need per annum in norway is your money. It’s you that would spend it and you probably need about the same amount for upkeep per annum in Sweden too(maybe a little lower)

So why take a sweden where you’ll pay a whole 2.5million per semester over a norway with no tuition?!!!

It’s a no brainer

Good evening,
I want to enquire about living in Norway ��.
I plan entering into the country in a few months time with a tourist visa of 3 months.
Within that 3 months, I plan to get a job and a work permit to convert my visa.
I want to ask if jobs are easy to get over there and if yes, is it also easy to get a work permit before the expiration of one's visa
Please reply soon as the information you provide will be of utmost help.
I don’t know much about this. But from the little I know it would be almost impossible
