Final comments

If you have time, money and made good budies to go travelling around, you should take the Interrail pass for Scandinavia! It gives you 12 days of travelling around in Norway, Sweden and Finland for a quite cheap deal! I made a 5000km trip via Oslo-Trondheim-Narvik-Helsinki-Stockholm-Oslo-Bergen, which was just fantastic! (best time to travel is may-june)

I think it is a good city to life but is raining all the time and you´ve got to arrive there by bus because taxi from airport is very expensive!. Maybe is better if you Know before go where are you going to stay because hostals are expensive too and you can loose in the first days a lot of money!
