The Electric Car

-
My car (unplugged) at an electric charging station.


The electric car is growing in popularity in Norway. It's not at all uncommon to see parking spaces designated
for electric cars and charging stations.

 Here we have more electric cars per capita than anywhere else in the world. The electric vehicle has grown so much in popularity in fact that half of all car sales in 2017 were electric or hybrid cars.

I'm also among the population who own an electric car and I'm satisfied with the purchase. It's affordable and cheap to drive, I can get 157 km (97.5 miles) in one charge in the summer and 107 km (66.5 miles) in the winter, I'm lowering my carbon footprint by driving an electric car rather than one that is powered by petrol, and my favorite feature - the battery is located on the underside of the car which means the seats are placed higher. As a petite person, this is an advantage because I can actually see over the steering wheel and dash board. Because of this, I'm certain it's safer for me if I were to ever be in a car accident. Another advantage (and a selfish one at that) is as of now electric car owners don't have to pay toll station fees. Of course, with more and more people owning electric cars, this rule is sure to change.

Considering Norway's main source of power is hydroelectricity, the cost of charging an electric car becomes even more affordable. Not to mention, public parking charging is free of charge.

Expat Life

-
I've finally begun reading a book that has been in my reading list for a few years now; Norwegian By Night by Derek B. Miller. The author is actually an American man from Boston living in Oslo. Although it's a thriller, the expatriation of the main character is relatable. Sheldon Horowitz, a Marine, relocates to Oslo with his granddaughter, an American married to a Norwegian man. One particular quote, or paragraph rather, stood out to me, "Lars, being Lars, was overjoyed and encouraging and optimistic about her ability to adapt and join the pod. Norwegians, true to their nature, prefer to spawn in their own waters. Consequently Oslo is peopled by Norwegians married to a shadow population of displaced souls who all carry the look of tourists being led like children through the House of Wax." According to Wikipedia  16.8% of Norway's population is made up of immigrants. Granted this number also includes children born to immigrants regardless of being born in Norwa...

The Dyne

Separate dyne!  On beds a dyne (duvet) is used and you purchase covers in many prints and different types of fabrics. These are a pain in the butt to put over the duvet, but we manage. Many people have a duvet for summer months and a duvet for winter months. Oh, and the most common thing is for each person to have their own duvet. Moving to Norway as a newlywed, I wanted to have one duvet that we shared on our bed thinking it would be extra cozy and we'd cuddle more. Newlyweds are hilariously idealistic though! This lasted only a few months before we surrendered with white flags in the war zone that was our sleeping quarters. Turns out, I'm quite territorial over the duvet. I hear a lot of women are like this. I freeze easier than my husband so I was often less comfortable than I wanted to be and he's a night owl who goes to bed later than I do which means every time he lifted the duvet, a gush of cold air would follow him waking me. We gave up with our idealism o...

Froot Loops

Froot Loops! Who'd have thought so many Americans would be joyously celebrating Froot Loops' arrival to Norway like it's 1972? Yet here we are. Froot Loops have arrived in Norway. Our bland, unvaried  cereal aisle has become  slightly  more colorful. I say slightly because, well, the Froot Loops that have now ascended from cereal heaven to Norway are lacking some color. You know, artificial color! That good ole unhealthy stuff us Americans are so accustomed to eating. When I poured my first bowl of these Froot Loops, my first thought was  it looks like a comparison picture of how someone with colorblindness views Froot Loops.  My eldest daughter on the other hand exclaimed, "WOW! SO COLORFUL!" Same taste, just lacking some pigment. As it turns out, there are some ingredients which are allowed by the FDA, but are not allowed in foods in Europe.  Food dyes are one of those things, but if a product has certain dyes in it, they must have a warning la...
