Emma
Hi! I’m Emma and I’m from Norway. At the moment I’m planning a trip to go to Latin America and maybe visit USA on my way there/home. I’m very exited and will be doing most of the trip alone. I have some friends that will be joining me for about a month, but I’ll be travelling for around four months in total. I really look forward to this trip and would love both advice and someone to meet up with☺️

I am an active person who loves to explore and experience new things. I enjoy nature and hiking - as well as nights out with good food a drinks. I prefer exploring new places and seeing monuments rather than just sunbathing all day, although I sometimes just wanna do exactly that too. I work for a tech company at the moment, but are changing jobs to a fashion company soon - I am very into fashion so I’m very excited. I love in Oslo (Norway), but have lived both in the UK and Netherlands for several years too. I’m neat, tidy and can be very quiet ☺️

Maud
I'm 28 years old, traveling alone for 5 months accross Europe. I really like to travel and discover new cities as much as I can and also meet new people always! I love to dance all the time, listening to music and also sing and not only in the shower. I teached sports to children last year, sport is another passion (I love to run, to bike, to dance, to go climbing.. ). I also like to have time to read books, go to the cinema and do some photos of cities or nature.

Hi, my name is Lilly, I‘m (almost) 18 years old and graduate school this spring. Afterwards I would love to visit Scandinavia. I‘m looking for someone to join me. Travelling together and sharing special moments is much more fun than experiencing that alone.

Solo travel experience
Norway is absolutely gorgeous. I've been there 4 times, coincidentally once in each season. For cities, I recommend Oslo for the Viking Museum and the Munch Museum, Bergen and Stavenger for the panorama and Trømso for the northern lights and learning about the Sami people.
Solo travel experience
I loved Oslo. I stayed on an island in Oslo and the host had kayaks: absolutely fantastic experience and host. I took ferries to islands, went to the Nobel Peace Museum, went to the Frogner Park, even did the Norway in a Nutshell tour which hadn't been the plan but it was amazing. My host encouraged it. I don't usually do tours but it was a fantastic way to make sure I saw fjords and waterfalls and included train, ferry, bus, etc.

Local experience
Norway is a country with amazing nature. Lofoten and the West coast is known for their scenery. In Oslo, use time to get to know the city. Walk along Akerselva on a nice day. Experience the food halls. Go swimming in the fjords (you can take a boat to several islands). Go visit Kampen, an old working class neighborhood with wooden houses. Trondheim, see Nidarosdomen and enjoy the restaurants. One hour north of Trondheim is Stiklestad - were Norway got christianized in 1030 - they have a play about it in the summer.
