“Things In Norway That Are Foreign To Me”: 25 ‘Cultural Shocks’ This American Woman Experienced After Moving To Norway
Interview With Artist
Part of traveling and seeing new places is the thrill and excitement of finding out how people live in other countries. And the more drastic the difference is in culture, the more exciting it is.
Meet Jorie, a Chicago creative who has moved to Norway to live together with her husband, family, and pets, and who has also turned her TikTok channel into a platform to broadcast all of the interesting things she as an American found foreign in Norway.
In her running series of videos, appropriately titled “Things In Norway That Are Foreign To Me”, she points out things like bread cutting machines in grocery stores, leaving baby strollers with babies outside, packing your own groceries, and the like.
This, and other videos on her channel, have drawn in nearly 24,000 followers and almost 800,000 likes.
So, we’ve turned her intriguing points into a curated list that you can vote and comment on below. So, get cracking, and if you’re an international living in another country, why not share your biggest culture shocks in the comment section below!

Bored Panda got in touch with the face behind the channel, Jorie, for an interview on her Things In Norway That Are Foreign To Me video series and all things Norway.
In the beginning, Jorie thought of creating these videos for an American-only audience as a way of informing them about the Norwegian culture. But she quickly understood that Norwegians like to see their culture reflected back at them, so the audience grew rapidly.
"Of course, it’s a small country in population and representation is exciting. I also think they enjoy explaining (as much as I enjoy reading it) why these differences are the way they are," elaborated Jorie.
So as my audience arose, I now try to point things out to Norwegian viewers of things here in Norway that are not common in other countries, especially the Americas, that they might not realize (like how much they add canned corn to, its not something they notice until they realize many other places don't have it as a common pizza topping!)."

Now, it's not all culture shock, as there are also "spot the difference" videos. Sure, some can be a tad bit shocking, like the idea of the government having to agree on a baby's name, but the latter category would involve things like date format differences and, according to Jorie, they are more for the sake of discussion.
And speaking of videos in general, Jorie used to keep a running list of things to discuss in them, but it changed a bit when the audience got involved:
"Now I read heavily through the comments, and just note things as I experience them. Again, there are 2 categories in the series: the ‘culture shock’ which doesn’t have many items left on the list as I’ve been living here a while; and the 'basic-known differences', those I have a few more on the back burner about. I’m also highly sensitive to all the things that will be misinterpreted as 'stupid American' so I try to stay always from those… or at least give a very thorough brainstorm of how to communicate it in a video."

There are, however, videos that Jorie decided not to post, or there are videos that were posted despite it not really being "new" information at this point. She elaborates:
"Like I just mentioned, I hate the 'stupid American' comments. Of course, I know in Europe the dates are D/M/Y vs M/D/Y, or that the power outlets here were different, but I still want to post these small differences for Norwegians and other Europeans that don’t know how America does it."
"I also get a lot of comments telling me how America works (in a negative cliche light) from people who definitely have never been. Mind you, we are made up of SO many states that are SO different culturally than one another. So videos that bring up politics, I’ll stay away from as I don’t like feeling any personal association with those cliches.
"On the other end, I’ll get comments from people who studied abroad in the states telling me I’m wrong about my comparison (roundabouts are not common in the US, period, end of story!)."

Different (Consecutive) Date Format
Why the Americans have it different I do not know, it makes sense day, month then year.
Whenever there's a date between 1st and 12th I have to guess what's the day and what's the month because I have NO F** IDEA if the person that wrote it is from the US or a normal person.

That's not just... I mean, that's everywh... I mean, the whole world, except... You know, what, forget it.
Literally no one else (apart from Canada?) uses the stupid American format.
I adopted YY-MM-DD because it works great for naming computer files. It beat both the US and EU system by a long shot for clarity and usefulness. Especially with photos, the yymmdd format is a life saver because it pouts your photos in chronological order, instead of having all your Christmases bunched up together in the same place.
In America it is annoying because dd/mm/yy makes sense but all of our systems want mm/dd/yy. Then, if you work with people in other countries at all. Or need to convert in your head and the date is the first twelve days of the month.... Which is it???
Yeah, Americans, give 'em 2.5 cm and they'll take... what is a "foot" in civilized measurement?

No, no, no. Norway doesn't have the different format. The US does. The entire world does Day, Month, Year. Only the US does the month first.
Here in Australia we have the same as Norway. It makes so much more sense. Especially if the date is 3/7/22 which can be read in the USA as 7 March 2022 but here it would read as the 3rd July 2022. I worked in a profession that needed exact dates and traded with the US. It was a nightmare.
Because a date gives no information - it is epistemologically dependent. The 27th means nothing. June, or February, gives immediate context. The month actually contains the most useable situational information. You get a sense of time-space. It’s actually more important than the year, which is most often self evident.
The USA has used the month/day format since they became an independent country, and will stick to it, no matter what. Hooray for the fourth of July. :)
It's only America that's different. In the UK we also use day/month/year.
In the USA military they use day, month, year. Sometimes written like 6 Jan 1967 or regular way 1/6/1967.
Not sure why the U.S. does it differently from most of the rest of the world. I find it odd, too.
Apart from the triple e, I thought bother were correct OR Write it 7/3/22 and say it the 7th of March 22 Just do NOT say March 7
I don't understand why people are confused by Americans when we do this. We just write the date the way we speak. June 5, 1980 = 6/5/80. What's wrong with that?
DAY. MONTH. YEAR !! THATS HOW TIME WORKS AMERICA, THATS HOW TIME WORKS !! . . . when was the last time a cashier said "That will be 54 cents and 4 dollars please" . . . . .
Logically, I go year-month-day, the most significant into on the right. It also helps when organizing chronologically. 2022.02.11, increment from the right to the left.
I write it the same way as they do in norway than. I always forget the months and numbers and it easier.
Should be no surprise to anyone that every other nation ain't a idiot that does dates out of order
Yeah ok. US way is dumb I agree. Like not adopting metric system. Got us there.
But does the metric system have a cool name? No, no they don't. The Imperial system is so much cooler sounding. And if you like the metric system so much you should create a time format that has 10 hours in a day, with minutes consisting of 100 seconds and hours being 100 minutes long. Have fun, and make sure to name it something cool.

It's the exact reverse of money, measurements and time, smallest to the left (day) largest to the right (year), the rest of the world does it!
I live in the U.S. an I don't get this one either. Perhaps it's a government thing??🤔 But also I guess if you don't live here; don't worry about it.
Gotta love that. As well as F/C, inches/cm, lbs/kg etc. And the more interesting part is that they actually use the metric system as well as European date format in several professions in the US, like the military or healthcare. I mean, why not just make it easy on everyone and just switch already lol
Always write out the month, or at least the first 3 letters of it, to disambiguate. I guess the date she's trying to say is 3 Jul 1991.
Normal. We boycot the american layout if someone has bought american software...
I’ll never understand why the rest of the world rags on America for doing things it’s own way. Who cares as long as it works for them? Every nation has their own quirks
I like MONTH/DAY/YEAR. Knowing the month right off tells you what to wear, what to carry, and what you can leave home. And it lets you picture in your mind what the weather is/was/will be like for any event. You can picture it in your mind. The day just refines the month.
The whole rest of the world works this way, and you knew it. FAAAAKE
Would actually be better if YYYY/MM/DD as it would then sort properly.
The American date format is honestly so stupid, just doing it to be different.
Smaller Milk Packaging With Shorter Expiration Periods
Norwegian scientists recently clarified that milk can be perfectly good for way longer than what is printed on the carton.
Jorie continued:
"My biggest takeaway on it is that these videos are not 'who’s right and wrong', and no, I personally don't think the world revolves around the US, and many try to declare that. It’s just a fun note on how different countries and cultures can be. Although I find my commenters can be a very literal bunch! So I also try to put out as many disclaimers as I can to avoid all these types of comments."
"Sometimes my videos are dramatizations (I added canned corn to everything I ate that week of shooting, I do know Norwegians don't add it to those specific items). And some of my videos are more based on my experience coming from Chicago, not just the general US. But no matter how hard I try, no one reads captions and they will still find a point of contention. I do have a huge experience I plan to talk about in the very near future that I’ve been eager to share on social. So those will maybe become a sub-series to this series very soon. Stay tuned!"

"Norway is a beautiful, safe, and lovely place to be! Posting videos and interacting with so many Norwegians via TikTok has been a great microscope to even more of their culture than I could experience alone. The biggest challenge was trying to explore my new home during Covid times. I hope to keep it up throughout my time living here," concludes Jorie.

I know these posts get a lot of criticism because they are repetitive, but I actually really like them! I'm Russian-American and have lived in five different countries. Each time you move, things that might be obvious to people in that country or region can be really shocking to you - and it can make you feel less alone to share the oddities of your new home with others. I would definitely like to see more of these from other perspectives, not just American. But I think these are entertaining and sometimes interesting.
Same! My mother's familiy is not from the US and to their deaths, my grandparents experienced little bits of culture shocks!

I want to apologize to non-americans. This person is just inexperienced. Most everything on this list IS done in America, just not in the same places that this person is from. I can take pictures of 80% of these in my hometown in Alaska. The last few exist somewhere else im positive.
WHy is everything on BP american centered? Not everyone is american!
Many of these are obviously poor research (simple google) by this naive and such American. Look bigger and wider than your scope and quit being a fool, it makes the good travelled Americans look bad!

To all the people calling her "stupid" you have clearly never lived in different countries. Even if you know that the differences exist we all experience more or less cultural shock after emigrating.
I say she's stupid and ignorant. Ignorant of other cultures, sure. Stupid enough not to know about things that are actually available to her in her own home town. Also, she's on tiktok. I put that on the "I want attention for no actual reason" stupid list.

This shows the utter ignorance of life outside of the very insular US of A.
I don't think it really does. This girl is either very naive, or never left her house. Lots of these things are the same in the US, and the other things, like the wall plug, she should have learned years ago. I can't imagine going to another country without taking adapters that will work in that country. I really don't quite understand how she didn't know almost all these.

What a needy, attention seeking pile of drivel. BP you should be ashamed for posting this click-bait.
Calm down, it’s just an article for people to read when you are BORED! Don’t like it? Don’t read it, don’t comment, and move on to the next one ;)
Clueless woman surprised by ordinary things. There, I fixed it.
Can bp come up with some sort of focus group to discuss what your readers want to see? Or an American Advisor? So sick of these posts. They are absolutely pathetic. Have an American read these before posting them. 90% of this was false. People actually believe these things to be true.
Many of these are done in the USA. Not everyone is an uncultured idiot..thanks BP 🙄
Most of these surprising things are common in most of European countries and in the US. Maybe this lady moved from a very remote village? That's why she is surprised
I don't know where this woman was living in the US, but most of these are not surprising. She calls her site “Things In Norway That Are Foreign To Me”, so I have to remember that they were surprising to HER. I love the multiple open windows, I've never seen that.
My thought is either this lady is not well-travelled, or just being ignorant about the facts there are other Countries that do the same thing but just Americans that are different??? Majority of the listed items are normal where I am in Canada (roundabout traffic definitely isn't Canadian forte lol), as well as Europe.
SHE LIVED IN A BOX IN THE MOUTAINS. ALL OF THIS WE HAVE BUT .... excuse me. We have most of this stuff here in.... the USA. I'm so sick of people being "shocked". It's not shocking. Move around. Get cultured. Know what your getting into before you move. Would I leave my sleeping baby in a stroller outside? No. We have different outlets and volts here than other countries. Yes. Good God. I kinda want to shake her.
Honestly, she's just plain wrong about a lot of these. Either she led a quite sheltered life, or she's not really American.
90% of these things can be discovered in the majority of Europe too... are roundabouts seriously not a thing in the US?
We have them here. I think the OP had never driven on one, or didn't have any near her. Not sure, but yup, we have them!

Most of these I recall from 35 years ago. The thing that really surprised me was when I forgot my purse at a restaurant two hours from home. I couldn't remember the name of it though. A telephone operator narrowed it down, called for me and it was there for pick up. The honesty and helpfulness of the people were a revelation!
Almost all of these are Europe-wide norms, nothing out of the ordinary here
Facepalm. TikTok is allowing for stupid people to be on ...social media, I guess... and BP is encouraging me to click on TikTok s**t. Also, this woman is yet again an example of a sheltered fool. Part of the reason I refuse to play tour guide anymore.
Holy s**t! Things are different in a different country! What a sensational conclusion.
These "Americans in Europe" posts become more trash everyday. There are Americans already living in Europe for many years, and vice versa, and some of the "shocking" things have been common knowledge for 30 years. Plus it's not even original panda content, it's just a deconstructed tiktok video
All these thing are common in northern Europe. Don't move to another continent if you need things to be the same.
One thing i constantly see said about americans is our complete lack of geography or about other cultures so BP is showing americans being surprised and yall mad. This is helping to educate what is normal everywhere else. Then maybe we we'll finally do something about our shitty healthcare system and will realize we arent the most technologically advanced (cuz so many do think that). And no, we generally dont move to other countries. Americans are only now getting fed up enough to move elsewhere. So calm down. You dont have to read these posts ya know.
I don't understand why many of these things are culture shock. We have most of these things in Canada. Does the US do everything different from normal countries?
Omg ... uncommon only for US natives who never left their country
Most of these things are actually normal in everyday life in other countries like milk only lasting a week unless it is long life !! And shower doors hahaha
Many of these are normal in other countries too. The US is pretty unique.
I couldn't even finish this. The USA bashing in here is too over the top. I left a bitchy comment and scrolled through. I've always dreamed of traveling overseas, but after reading a few of these articles on BP, not so much anymore. I can spend my money here.
A lot of these things are normal not just in Norway but throughout Europe. What surprises me is that Americans have no clue that other people live differently. It's not about one way of living being better than another, just different cultures but I have to say I'm surprised by the things she is surprised about because these are such normal things where I live!
Celeste, a lot of these things are quite normal here too. I don't know what was up with the OP, but she must have been very sheltered, or gone anywhere other than her own hometown. I'm not sure the OP was even American at this point. Please don't say "Americans" as if it's all of us. It's careless and untrue.
