Personal comments
It´s amazing how all the people there speaks english, even old people speaks english. Nothing compared with Spain. And they don´t have any problem in speaking english to you, and also they don´t demand you to learn norwegian although I think is a nice thing to do and also is kind with them and respectfull with your host country and population.

Personal spending habits
Food and nightlife and traveling where extreamly expensive in Norway because they taxation policy. The housing was ok because it was subsidized by the university. Also it was free to call from a student house to another and I was carefull with international calls

There were some tax-free shops.
And also some student discounts in buses or books...
And we had IKEA so the forniture and stuff like that wasn´t really a problem.
