What do I need to know before moving to Bergen?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Bergen, they said...

"Bergen is a beautiful city located in the western part of Norway. It is known for its stunning fjords, mountains, and picturesque views. Expats should be aware that the cost of living in Bergen is quite high, so it is important to budget accordingly. Additionally, the weather in Bergen can be quite unpredictable, so it is important to be prepared for all types of weather. Expats should also be aware that the language spoken in Bergen is Norwegian, so it is important to learn some basic Norwegian before moving to the city. Finally, Bergen is a great city for outdoor activities, so expats should take advantage of the many opportunities to explore the city and its surroundings," said another expat in Bergen, Norway.
