Life in Norway =welcome to my privet blog!"
The year before last, I visited my friend who got married to a Norwegian and lives there.
My friend’s husband was working for a bank. Working for banks in Japan is awful! My brother is a banker but he can’t take paid holidays for over 1 week and everyday he works until late.
However, my friend’s husband can come home around 4pm and eat dinner with family and enjoy his private time.
How different we are!
Moreover, I was fascinated by Norwegian government strategies.
They preserve lots of nature. For example, taking the 4 steps of the center of Oslo, the capital, they have a big lake and a huge forest. At the lake, beavers live, and sometimes they make dams and it floods. You know, beavers need tons of nature!!! Can you imagine a beaver dam in Tokyo!?
In spite of being rich in oil, they are second oil producer, Norway put preserving nature and human rights above the economy. It seemed me very humanistic and healthy.
Norway stuck in my mind. ”What kinds of thoughts run this country? I should study Norwegian civilization more closely. Maybe I should study it there.”
