The inaugural issue also focuses on helping expats find their dream job and work in Norway. This special “Work Issue” provides readers with information such as popular job site listings, how to write a cover letter, important Norwegian job terms to know, holiday time and pay, and even a list of job opportunities.
According to another one of the magazineÂ’s Editors and Managing Partners, Kristie Dugan, the goal of Our Amazing Norway is to make foreigners feel more like locals and less like outsiders.
“We know all the struggles that come from being a foreigner living in Norway. We know the disillusionment that happens when all the magical fairy dust fades away and reality strikes. So we wanted to offer you our experience, our knowledge and what we have learned the hard way and hope it makes your life in Norway easier,” said Dugan. “Whether you just moved to Norway or you have been here for 20 years, there is something in this magazine for everyone. It’s our dream to inspire and uplift you. It is our wish for you that everyday living in Norway begins to look more like that dream you first had when you moved here.”
