The country of Norway is known for its fjords, majestic mountains and beautiful forests which give you plenty of opportunities to go hiking and trekking. However, before you embark on your adventure through the Norwegian wilderness in and around Oslo, take a moment to prepare and pack your backpack like a pro hiker.

The crisp air, serene sights and wilderness of the forests and fjord cast an air of calm over one of the biggest metropolises in Scandinavia. Oslo is a great place to visit for some rejuvenation with your significant other this new year.

Oslo is not the greatest place for a digital nomad - especially not in the winter. Location-independent professionals are, in general, known for their frugal ways (after all, they need the money to travel), and many of them have long lists of budget-friendly travel tips on their blogs. Well, in Oslo, the cost of living is pretty high (over $4000 a month, according to Nomadlist) and the winters are freezing. In all other areas, Oslo is a great place for some location-independent work because of its peaceful nature, fast internet, and a huge variety of places to work from. Today, let's take a look at some of them - coworking spaces where digital nomads can rent a desk, use a printer, and maybe even hold a meeting if needed.

Spending your NYE in chilly Oslo is truly a magical experience. The cold Scandinavian peninsula looks breathtaking covered in a blanket of snow. If this is your first time visiting a Northern Europe city, the upcoming holiday provides a great opportunity for having a winter-time great vacation. Oslo is the capital of Norway and acts as the economic and administrative centre of the country. The city is also a hub of Norwegian trade, banking and industry. The city has numerous tourist attractions and festive celebrations waiting for you to this New Year’s Eve.
