High School Study Abroad in Oslo, Norway

Norway is famous for its breathtaking glaciers and fjords, but this country also has large forested areas, rich farmland, gentle valleys, and sunny beaches along its Gulf Stream-warmed coastline. Norwegian architecture is renowned for its stave churches (among the oldest wooden buildings on earth). Citizens are avid winter sport enthusiasts, with skiing ranking as a national pastime. In the summer, hiking through the forests and mountains is popular. You'll learn all about Norwegian culture in an orientation upon your arrival, including a week-long language and culture camp. Later in the year, you'll be able to help with a week-long community service project in your community. Norwegian families encourage their teenagers to be active and social, so be ready to participate in sports and be interested in outdoor excursions. AFS host family placements are located throughout Norway.
