Get a job

Shed all documents and claim to be a Syrian refugee.*

* Caution: this plan might end up sending you to a refugee camp in Jordan.

unless you have a top tier degree or already employed in an international company I wouldn't be too hopeful

Why do Americans always fantasize about going to countries that are insular and unwelcoming? Norway, Switzerland, Finland...etc

What's your fucking problem?

Norway deports niggers that aren't legally allowed to be here so that wouldn't work

You would have to get a job. You can get a visitor visa, think it's 4 months, then you have 4 months to find a job here. If you get a job then you can stay for as long as you have a job, and if you stay here long enough you can get a citizenship. Is that 4years? Not sure.

>unwelcoming?
Here they adore foreigners who aren't (sand)niggers. Especially in smaller towns

This. White Americans are very welcome, and we tend to befriend them very easily.

But it's not easy to make friends with you people. That's what I meant. Not that you are hostile. You are friendly but also very hard to build friendships with. Kind of true of all the Nordic countries though.

In all likelihood OP would end up in an expat community and never ever have a proper Finnish friend.

>But it's not easy to make friends with you people.
Yes it is. Takes a bit longer that's all. You don't get invited home for dinner just because you had a conversation at work. You need to ease into a friendship over some time. Doesn't have to take very long, but that's basically the gist of it.

Depends on if OP is studying or working. If he's studying then he should be able to get friends as easily as natives, some might even try to get to know him just for being american. If he's working then it's obviously much harder, but that's a problem for natives too.

Mind askinkg your gubment to pay me some dosh from your savings account? Whats 300k from 1 trillion dollars anyway?

When you say "friends" and when and American says "friends", they mean different things.

An American befriends you at 13:00 and invites you over to their house at 8:00 to have dinner and chill.

Meanwhile for a Norwegian to do the same it would take years of contact and probably would never happen.

Look here's a thread full of anecdotes as proof:

quora.com/How-do-immigrants-in-Norway-make-friends-with-the-locals

I think it's easier to get friends as a foreigner since most people would be genuinely interested in you
I moved to a new town other part of the country due to work and it took few weeks to get new friends. I didn't know anyone before
I think that's just a bad meme

>years of contact and probably would never happen.
It does not take years wtf. It can, if you don't even try. But if you try to make friends it will take a week or a couple of weeks depending onthe person. It may aslo just take days for some people. It also depends how often you see each other. If you see that person everyday then it will happen fast.

The thing is, if you take no steps forward then in all likelyhood the Norwegian won't either. We tend to keep it status quo as long as you do. But if you do take steps forward, then we will also, and together you bond more and become friends. Let's say you work with someone, and you see him everyday for a week or two, you talk everyday and you get along. Then just ask if he want to do something like grab a beer or something on a friday evening or saturday. If you do that, then he'll say yes. It's easy, but it doesn't happen if you don't do anything. However, he might be the one to ask you. Most likely you will be the one who do it though.

Move to straya. We fall in love at 13:00 and have a root in the shitter at 13:05.

>marriage

Why don't you want to marry us desu?

because they are the exact opposite of the country they are living in

I'm too young to marry, period.

it is the easiest way tho

move to montana or something

To study or to work. Trying to get in with a work visa is a bit trickier though as you have to have qualifications that are highly sought after, and few employers will hire someone what doesn't speak norwegian.

This.

If you have a background in some kind of health related profession, you will literally have jobs to choose from anywhere you want.

t. pharmacist from Bosnia. I had job offers from like 50 different pharmacies all over the country.
