very cool idea with all 5 senses! we hoped you enjoyed Oslo:)
Thank you! I loved every minute.
Visitoslo, what about working a bit harder for "Gamlebyen". Most people seem to miss it, it's such a shame.
I found your channel tonight, and as a Norwegian, I must say that this was a refreshing, serious, and great presentation of Oslo. Your Norwegian pronunciation is also very good for a non-Norwegian. Keep up the good work!
I appreciate this comment greatly! Oslo was an amazing place to visit, and Norway has become one of my favorite countries in the world. Excited to have you here!
Agreed! One of the best videos from Oslo Ive seen
beautiful video! Oslo looks like a cool place.
Amazing content ! Hope you had a great time.
Thanks a ton 😊 it was incredible!
great channel!!
Thank you!! I'm glad you're enjoying it - to do this day, I've found it almost impossible to find blogs that really dive into topics like what places smell/sound/feel like, so it's great to be able to visit places around the world and report back!
I've been wanting to go to Norway! thanks for sharing
You're gonna love it when you go! Norway feels like such a peaceful, green oasis
Well done! Thank you for sharing your experiences!
The best part of traveling the world is sharing the experience! Thanks for watching 😊
Great job as always, but we gotta work on those pronunciations. 😂
@@ChristopherFehrenbacher Yeah, the post-production cringe I felt at the word "fjord" was next level 😂
Great video. Thanks for sharing your impressions, Michael. :-) Small note: The last name of artist Edvard Munch is pronounced "Monk".
Pronunciations were not my strong point this time around, haha. But thank you!
@@asenseoftravel Do not worry. The correct pronunciation depends on the language and its underlying rules. Even names can differ in various languages. Your audience is English-speaking. Hence, the most suitable pronunciation is the one that English speakers find natural when encountering the word. Often, this entails a subjective interpretation, particularly when there are no specific rules for certain foreign combinations of letters. If you receive complaints, direct them to the famous series 'Hyacinth' and the snobbish character bearing the same name, who insists that her last name should be pronounced as if residing in France. Her vanity prevents her from fully accepting her husband's surname. Watching her they may get aware of how silly they are - if intelligent enough. If not who cares.
I just found your channel. So brilliant of you to highlight the sensory experiences of different locations - it works… I can taste the smoked salmon, smell the crisp fresh salty air! Also, these are beautifully scripted and produced. So professional and so helpful since I am planning a trip to Scandinavia this year. Thanks!
Great video. 🙌🏾🔥
Thank you!
I just saw your first video, liked and subscribed, hopefully you soon reach the first milestone of 1000 subscribers. Cheers 👍
Thank you for subscribing! I have several really cool adventures to share in the near future, so I'm glad you're along for the ride!
I love this town, but I don't live there. I agree that old, new, big and small mixes very well in Oslo, and late spring is usually the best time to visit. After the long, cold, dark Scandinavian winter, Oslo really comes to life in an astonishing way. Thanks for a good video!
(In the Oslo agglomeration, there are a little more than one million people.)
Agreed! There's a great harmony in Oslo between old and new, urban and natural, and even winter and summer. Just a truly serene place.
Hey, I see that you are a relatively upcoming channel and I just want to share my words of encouragement. Please keep doing what you are doing and I hope you go on to become a huge youtuber sharing your travels and experiences.
I really appreciate this!
If your going to norway in winter oslo is not the place to visit. Go north😊
A smaller Norwegian town up north would be amazing 😊
@@asenseoftravel Tromsø is the biggest up north and you often see the northern lights in that area, and a town with great people:)
As an Oslo citizen, I approve of this video 👍🏼 great take on the city, hope to see you here again soon
This is the highest compliment to get, thank you! Hoping to get back to Oslo again soon
Beautiful video. I've lived in Oslo, but don't think I've ever smelled Oslo in such detail. Very interesting, might try next time I visit 😉
Must admit though (and others have no doubt made you aware already), but I always chuckle when Americans pronounce Munch like the act of stuffing food in one's face. The 'ch' is pronounced 'k' 🤣👍
Anyway, really enjoyed experiencing Oslo for the first time through your eyes. And the pronunciation stuff is of course perfectly understandable.
Thank you!! And ha, with "Mun[ch]"it is kind of ironic, since we Americans do have quite the reputation for stuffing food in our faces 😂
Great video, just keep in mind regarding your plans at the end, Oslo is not the place to see glittering northern lights in the winter time. You must usually have a special camera to catch the lights, they'll be invisible or barely visible to the naked eye. If you want to see the northern lights, go north to a place like Narvik who have a lot of history. Or Tromsø as well, which is dubbed the "Paris of the High North".
I've heard a lot of great things about Tromsø, so perhaps that is where I'll need to visit next! Outside of the northern lights, I'm sure Oslo is still beautiful in the winter. It would be great to see some the islands like Hovedøya blanketed in snow!
@@asenseoftravel Good luck! Also of course you're right, Oslo just by itself is beautiful in the winter.
Interesting approach, I really liked this. One thing I think you missed out on is a walk in the huge forests surrounding the city, complete with lakes to swim in.
By the way, Munch it pronounced closer to "monk" :)
That was one thing I really wished I had had the time to do in Oslo! There were a few lakes and hiking trails that seemed amazing. Next time!
As many others you didn't see the real old town. The "Gamlebyen" or old town was built before 1500 when the King moved the town. There is still old buildings built with parts of the ancient structures around them, mixed with ruins like the one on Hovedøya.
This is great info for everyone! Is Gamblebyen near Sentrum?
@@asenseoftravel Well, it's not that far. You can take bus or team. It's not a problem :)
@@TullaRask well I've got a new item on my bucket list for my next visit to Oslo! 😊🇳🇴
@@asenseoftravel I ment bus and Tram. It's so hard writing properly sometimes :d Do come back another time. People usually ditch Oslo, but I like it here :)
Jeg vil til dette stedet, om Gud vil
Visit India . Pls
I would love to soon! Which city would you say best captures the India experience?
Jaipur Rajasthan
There are no villages in Oslo. Or close to Oslo, what you're seeing is still the city.
And Vigelandsparken is in the west part of the city, definitely not east.
Well. Oslo has been made by joining together several small towns through time, so calling them villages might not be so bad.
@@TullaRask There are no "villages" within a city, and Oslo has many "drabantbyer" (there is no english word for this that I could find), but these were built after the second world war, and cannot be called villages. I think foreigners have trouble understanding the geography of Oslo, as it is unlike most capitals, there are more woods and so they get confused as to what is the city and what is not.
@@JustHorseyMie I think this one is talking about the look of different parts of the city, so villages might be a useful word to use. Talking about Telthusbakken as a village is not that far fedge.
@@TullaRask telthusbakken is just one tiny street. I disagree with you, and there's no point in discussing rhis
LOL... I live not far from Charlotte, NC
Whereabouts? I grew up in Greenville, SC and went to Winthrop for undergrad!
@@asenseoftravel super cool! I love Greenville, SC. I am in Fayetteville, NC, and I went to ECU (Greenville, NC) for grad school lol
Going to Olso next month!
Oh I know Fayetteville! I lived in Southern Pines not far from there when I was super young.
Enjoy! A lot of people turn their nose up at Oslo/think it's boring but it was personally one of my favorite cities in Scandinavia

Munch....munk
Yeah, I had a lot to learn with my pronunciations haha.
As a Norwegian happy is not the right word. «content» would be more accurate, but now days this is changing due to the rise in poverty after covid, inflations and Russia’s invasion and war on Ukraine. Everything has gotten extremely expensive (40%) especially food, so those already struggling pre pandemic have it even worse now… personally I find the mid century architecture unappealing and down right ugly. What I grew up with back in the 90’s and 2000’s like any major old school building or public building like a library etc. It was probably around the same time they decided to tear everything down and build “modern”. Yet we ended up with ugly architecture. I wish they kept the classic building from previous years tbh as many can be seen in the western part of Oslo where all the rich white people live🤡 I don’t mind the newest buildings (barcode), but this is an ongoing debate here and very polarized depending on which side you’re on as people love to hate on Oslo.
