EXAMPLE OF FEEDBACK:

“I have been to Norway twice before but I have never attended this type of training describing all about the Norwegian culture. This training will really help me coming more forward and adapt the Norwegian culture with ease.
I would recommend this culture training to all my colleagues in Norway”.

“The session was really useful and helped me understand Norwegian culture and how Norwegians think.”

"I would like to thank you for the interesting presentation you held for us.

 I have studied Nordic languages, literature and ethnology for almost 6 years, but I have never before got such a good insight into the Norwegian culture and manners as I did during your presentation!"
