Hello, @fishdeep,

Welcome to the Nexus! Always glad to see more Scandinavian people joining. I absolutely adore your culture and land. As a matter of fact, you might be interested in taking a look at this thread - A Month in Norway: A Deep Dive into Scandinavian Life and Culture - where I share my experience spending 1 month backpacking through Norway. It was one of the most amazing journeys I've made and it made me realize just how strongly connected I am to the deep North and its energy.

I'm also a borderline fanatic fanboy of Wardruna, as everyone around here knows since I've rapped about it for years now. I even carry their beautiful Bindrune tattooed on my body, in addition to all 24 elder Futhark runes.

Again, welcome, and enjoy the community! Lots of wonderful people here. <3
 
Norway is beautiful, but it is very cold and dark. It is a good place to visit, but a tough one to live.
I feel like it's the best country in Scandinavia. I like mountain people and the attitude toward life they have.
The laws are strict there, from what I remember. Liberty Caps grow in the south.
@Transform, glad you survived to tell the tale ☺️

Last I checked, there were some suggestions around decriminalization of psychedelics, but so far nothing official has passed. The moment they decriminalize that stuff, I'm moving there. I don't care how cold or dark it gets in the winter, everything else in this country is 10/10 in my book.

If they pass such a law, I'm moving with you ;)
However, winters are tough here; it gets to you after some years.

It's true, I know. And it's not the cold that bothers me. I'm fine with super low temperatures. What can really break me, though, is the lack of sunlight. Now that...that messes with my head big time. Uncle Huberman has taught me to get 15 minutes of sunlight in my eyes first thing after waking up, and not getting those 15 min can really throw a spanner in my circadian mechanics.

So you know this already. It gets dark at around 15:00 in the middle of winter. Vitamin D supplements are a must.
I have no idea how African immigrants cope with this. Coffee, tobacco, and alcohol are popular means for locals.

Yeah, I've seen it. If you go far enough north, it doesn't even get dark, simply because it never really gets...light? :D It's just a perpetual twilight, very strange.
