furthest I have travel from home?
Yes, Tornio in Finland. I’ve been further in distances but not in feeling of being far from Norwegian home. I don’t speak Finnish or Swedish, but most understand Norwegian people as the Swedish is more similar often. I love Finnish language and my ancestors spoke Finnish and or Kven language along with Sámi languages. I’m learning Finnish now.
Otherwise the absolute furthest culturally I have been from me is most definitively Oslo. I always feel foreign in Oslo. I felt more home in places like Pello in Northern Finland than in our capital city. It’s surreal being in a large city where the Norwegians are very different nature from home. It’s not that they are necessarily very mean or anything like that, it’s the culture shock. They tend to actually like the Northern people cultures when they move here.
