Norway is a country with one of the highest standards of living in the world, with their health care and education systems rated amongst the best in the world as well as living amongst strikingly beautiful landscapes. So, apart, from the cold, what would bring a Norwegian to the other side of the world to live ?
In a word, love. That was the case for Anette, who also, and some many find this surprising, finds Tasmania a trifle too warm at times..
But of course, there is more Anette's story than that. She met her husband-to-be in London, where she studied at drama school for several years.
Currently she lives with her husband and children in Railton, near Devonport in north-west Tasmania.
In this episode we talked about a range of topics comparing life and culture in Tasmania and Norway on things such as how we talk about our feelings, attitude to education and the way we celebrate Christmas.
