Tired with the South American instability? No way you'd go back to your home country but your nationality/passport(s) doesn't leave you many options?
Longyearbyen, capital of island, north of Norway, is a visa-free territory. There are about 2500 people of 51 nationalities.
The BBC has a 8-minute long video interviewing various inhabitants of Longyearbyen who explain what brought them there and how is their day-to-day life.
What an interesting video! They didn’t talk much about the 22 hours of darkness in December & January, which I think would be worse than the cold. And it must be a long trip to get there!
Looks bloody awful.
I've cycled in Norway and enjoyed it however I wouldn't like to live there. I remember buying half a dozen eggs which cost a fortune.
And then, before you get home with those eggs, a polar bear takes them away from you. Along with your arm.
Probably the best idea.
as Rice said.....be careful!!!!
I would say, a minority of people from abroad would make it there!!!!
Even as a Scandinavian it can be tuff there......an Argentinian there? Doubt that he would like it!
Just in South Scandinavia the winters are looooong and the days short.......and mind u a few thousand km more north......it's not for everyone!
