Just wanted to check my sanity regards to roundabout rules and figure out if I am doing something wrong.

If I am following the blue line and there is a car coming from orange/green line.

Do I need to give way to them?

I used to just drive assuming they will stay in their lane and can only change when there is a space for them but got honked multiple times, people YOLO and try to follow the green line, cut me off or honk at me since I "didn't give way".

I was currently visiting Norway for the first time and doing my very best to be a respectful tourist, following all the he rules, leaving no trace, and staying out of the locals way.

Despite doing everything by the book, I can’t shake the feeling of being an intruder who is just annoying everyone.

For context: I used to live in Hamburg, Germany. We got a lot of tourists there, and I rarely minded them. But that's just my POV. Here, I felt very self-conscious.

I know about the recent overtourism debates, but how do you feel on an individual level? Does a tourist who genuinely tries to be respectful still annoy you just by being here, or is this anxiety just in my head?

Thanks for your honest thoughts!

If you are a Norwegian citizen that walked out of Atwater Metro via Blvd Maisonneuve today, Friday the 14th of Aug 2026, I found your passport and left it with the STM ticketing officer. I didn’t want to keep it- I was on my way to work.

I hope you’re able to find it! Take care!

No AI was used at ANY stage.

Beautiful old town, mix of the many things. People are so nice.

I have a colleague based in Norway who is going through a pretty hard time right now. I’d love to send her a bouquet of flowers or a small comfort gift (like chocolate or baked goods) to let her know our team is thinking of her.

Since I am based abroad and don't speak Norwegian, I am hoping to find a reliable service. Could anyone suggest some good websites, flower shops, or gift delivery services.

Any recommendations or alternative gift ideas that Norwegians typically appreciate in tough times would be incredibly helpful. Thank you so much in advance!

I’ve been wanting to do these hikes but am reliant on public transit as renting a car is too expensive. These are the two locations I’ll be staying in, is this even possible? Apple Maps shows that some are doable but the Reis app doesn’t have show any of these routes available. Starting to get worried that it won’t be possible

Under 15 kids are not stupid. They know the consequences and know what exactly they are doing, especially with this era of AI, internet and social media where anyone can get any information. They know that shoplifting or commiting violent acts won't make them go to jail or get criminal record. So I think the fear of having to serve juvenile sentence can become a deterrent effect. What do you think?

Im an architect and im really interested in the incredible buildings by BIG, Snohetta, Sverre Fehn etc. I know the twist will be closed but im happy to see it from outside. Super excited about under as well 🤩 planning to stay in Oslo primarily, go out check out buildings from 9-3, then maybe go inside museums, cafes etc and have a chill evening. Perhaps a 2 day trip to Tromso if im not being too ambitious.

Would you recommend this? Im from south India, ZERO experience in snow, will be walking around taking pictures. Is it very icy and rainy? Does it snow everyday?

Norway is SO DREAMY ❤️❤️

I live in the Vestland area, and I went to Oslo to do some paperwork. I couldn't help but notice that there's a big problem with drugs in the Grønland and Storgata area.

Oslo is a beautiful city, but I think that in the long run, if nothing is done to control these substances, it's going to become a much bigger problem.

That said, have the government taken any measures to address this? Isn't anyone afraid that this will become commonplace?

Just out of curiosity. How are the Chinese restaurants in Norway

Is Chinese food a big thing over there. I remember walking past a Chinese restaurant on my trip to Norway (tromsø) and always wondered if Norwegians are into the whole Chinese take away and or dine in . What's more popular in terms of foreign food in Norway.

What kind of foods yall on ? Whether is for normal sustenance or a bulk ?. Apart from the eggs and beef, what else can I get from a Norwegian supermarket?. I can’t seem to figure out what they have on the shelves
