In June, I spent two weeks in Norway, supporting our client as a development engineer at a site near Oslo. At work, I interacted with both German colleagues and many locals.<\/p>

I experienced Norway as a very progressive country. Cash payments, for example, are not a big deal; I didn\u2019t need to withdraw money from an atm even once, since you could pay by card everywhere. Norway is particularly interesting to me, because it has a very high percentage of electric vehicles. The subject of electromobility is perceived and handled quite differently within the Norwegian society. I had interesting conversations regarding this topic with my host and my Norwegian colleagues. Conversations, which most likely would have been different in Germany.<\/p>

When the weather was good, I could go directly to the fjord after work to swim or relax. My apartment was only 200 meters from the water. During my time in Norway, I took many walks and explored the landscape. I cooked at home and took the opportunity to enjoy fresh fish and seafood.<\/p>

I was also free to plan my weekends as I wished. So, on Saturday, I took a ferry to Oslo. I have traveled a lot personally but had never been to Scandinavia, but it was always on my list. That this opportunity came through work was, of course, the absolute win for me. I explored the entire capital, and since there was a music festival taking place, there was a lot going on in the city. Every square had a stage with different kinds of music. On Sunday, the weather was perfect, so I went to a public lido by the fjord.<\/p>

On my last week, I went out for dinner with colleagues one evening. What really impressed me was the fact that it got dark around 11:30 PM and was light again by 3:30 AM. Also, the Norwegians were very friendly and welcoming.<\/p>

I gained a lot of professional experience that will help me with my future work, as I was engaged in diverse tasks and allowed to manage new areas. I am glad to use this gained knowledge in my daily work in Germany. Furthermore, I have not only evolved professionally during these two weeks but I have also gained valuable personal experiences. I would definitely like to go back at some point.<\/p>

I found the two-week period more than ideal; I had enough time to settle in a bit and also to try out some new activities. Yet eventually, you look forward to seeing your girlfriend, family, and friends back home after two weeks, so I don\u2019t necessarily need to be on business trips for longer. However, I can certainly imagine traveling for work for two weeks more often throughout the year.<\/p>

I can only say positive things about this experience. Norway was a fantastic opportunity for my personal and professional development. I will definitely travel to Norway again, but next time on a private trip.<\/p>

Yours, Jonas<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
