75: Retirement to Northern Norway

Life in Norway Show Episode #75: Originally from Essex, England, Trevor Fulton tells us his story of retiring to Northern Norway after decades of living all over the world.

One of the most common questions I receive at Life in Norway is about retirement, specifically the idea of moving to Norway to retire.

Trevor throwing himself into life in Northern Norway.

Now, while at the moment I plan to retire here, that’s not the same thing as moving here when already retired. I always thought that was a difficult thing to do, but a Life in Norway reader recently got in touch to share their story.

Not only have they managed to retire to Norway, but they’ve retired to a remote part of Northern Norway. I immediately invited them on to the show to find out more.

In today’s show I talk to Trevor Rulton about the benefits of challenges of living in a remote area, what everyday life is like, the admin process of moving to Norway, and lots more.
