Civil engineer here ^_^ Firstly thank you for your videos, I'm trying to move to Norway myself and I find them very helpful and they keep me hyped up! Secondly, I wanted to comment on the subject of heated floors you mentioned and maybe provide my own personal knowledge since you are an Architect yourself. Heated floors are especially effective on keeping the home warm, since the floor materials (ie. wood in this case) store the transmitted heat inside their mass and radiate that same energy very slowly to the environment (in comparison to traditional heated systems which heat only the air volume). Simply put, that way one may spend less energy to afford a comfortable living area in the winter when the sunlight heat gains are very small since the heated floor system is always on. Heated floors are a great solution for countries which receive little to no sunlight in the winter months, however, they are terrible on Mediterranean countries where we receive enough sunlight in the morning hours to sustain a comfortable environment and we only need to heat up our homes in the evening and night hours! Sorry for the long comment, thought you might find it interesting :D

Interesting comparison! Blue was by far the most expensive color. Some farmers painted their barn door blue just to show off their wealth. There is one thing I miss from your video. In Norwegian houses it is common to have what we call vindfang (wind catcher) or entrée (from french, entrance). It's a small room you enter when going through the front door to get into the house. In some larger houses like Trønderlån, this is more like a hallway. This room forms a barrier between the outside and the inside. Usually people dress or undress their outdoor clothes in this room, and shoes goes here. Anything like this in Portugal? Some Norwegian houses, like the one I grew up in have what we call værvegg (weather wall). This is the wall that is facing the direction where the most severe weather come from. This wall have no windows, or just one, small window, and sometimes covered with weather resistant plates. The rest of the house may have many windows and other features. I'm not sure how common it is, but this can be seen on houses at the coast and some fjords.

I'd say that in Portugal bedrooms/bedroom areas usually have wooden floors. While bathrooms, and the rest of the house (kitchen, living room, dining room, other kind of rooms) have tiles. I live on a rural area and most houses here have a top floor, where usually the bedrooms are and it has completely wooden floors (including corridors) except for any bathroom there. Meanwhile the floors on the ground floor are completely tiled. I'd have a huge problem if I had to take my shoes off anytime I entered a house because of the smell. I only take my shoes off when I'm in my house and the first thing I have to do is wash them...

I think Norway used to be more like Portugal with a separate room for the kitchen, but has been influenced by other countries and the trend of "open floor plan". This is something my mom often points out as she likes to have the kitchen in a separate room and does like this "new wave" of open floor plan trend. But I think a lot of houses in Norway still have a separate room for the kitchen :D Also outside of cities I think it's quite normal to have a fence in Norway, but then more a small one, not like a barrier as you pointed out Portugal has :) The thing with bathtubs as well in Norway, I think it's pretty normal in houses, not in city centers, to have a bathtub in like the "main" bathroom. But in apartments it's not because of the use of space :)

Actually I think in the old days it was more common to have a big kitchen where you sat and did the things, the livingroom was usually small, and in some cases divided into a common livingroom (small one) and a slightly bigger "nicer" livingroom that was only used at special events. I used to have a small house built after the war (because all the houses here where burnt down during the war), it was designed like that .. so the kitchen was bigger than the livingroom, but thats because most of the days doing was done there...

Hi. I am Norwegian and I love your reflections! I also love Portugal. I have been ‘all over’ Portugal again and again. I also have Portugesian friends and therefor, I have been inside many Portugesian homes. One thing I noticed is that many (not all) of them had their washingmachine on the balcony. Many balconies were like ‘an extra kitchen’. I agree on many of your observations. However, I grew up in ha house with a bidé😂! But you are right, so few Norwegians have a bidé. Ours is the only one I have ever seen in Norway. In Portugal, however, everybody had one. A funny memory I have from visiting Portugal in December one year, was how cold peoples home were. No one had a fireplace or a heater. They said only rich people have that. So, how do Portugesians keep warm in their winters? I had dinner wearing my ‘boblejakke’ on. Portugesians looked confused an said ‘Why are you wearing your jacket? Aren’t you a viking?’ I was no vikig in Portugal, thats for sure. I was freezing my ass off🥴😂😱

From what I know. We dont have the color code anymore, atleast not up in the North or a thing i have heard is a thing. You paint your house the way you want it pretty much, but if you live in a building that got other familys you need to have the same color (we call it rekkehus), it can be 2-4 houses wall to wall, so its just one long building with houses that is connected. But this is something they talk about on meetings, they vote and does what the most part want and can afford, but some of these got a rule that everyone need to agree before they can do anything. I really dont think i have ever heard that the houses needed to be in a color to "show" others, must be before i was born in that case (im 30). Not sure if you travel out of the North tho. Before everyone was just taking care of the houses and things, we didnt want to be a person "showing off" in the same way as in the South or the West, (sorry to all of you from South or West, but its just a fact.) :P But this is something that have started to change here aswell, there is a lot more people today that are kind of "showing off". It goes a bit against how we used to want to be, humble and not sending that "be better then others" vibe, but it have changed a lot. Been a biiiig change for the last 10 years in Tromsø atleast. Tbh i kind of wish it was a rule that each neighboor hood had the same color. I find it much prettier then how we have it, 1 house can have a old yellow color, and the next house got a nice grey color, and then a red or w/e. It just looks a bit messy in my eyes. So when i see places that got a rule on what color you can have, i just find it way prettier. Not talking about the houses tho, just thinking about the colors now.

Type of floors have changed. In the 80s and early 90s it was mostly "wall to wall carpets" - but that changed during mid 90s and until now. Stone floors it's not unusual for the first floor, not most common perhaps, but not unusual. Bathtubs: More common some years ago. And by that I mean, most common. Almost everyone had it. PS: Regarding Common Laundry Room... In older buildings in Oslo (not nowadays) there was also a "common toilet" - and it was in many cases "utedo" (outhouse toilots) - mostly in eastern side of town, where they where they where not that wealthy. Still was common in the 80s and up until the 90s I guess.

Buying a house or Apartment is very expensive in Norway and so if you want bigger rooms and more practical housing, you should buy older house / Apartment.

Most older houses have separate kitchens while new designs are more open plan.

Its quite commin in Norway to have a separate kitchen and dining room. Sometimes you can have a small kitchen table in the kitchen for every day use, and a larger and separate dining room for when you have more people. Also, regarding the bedroom sizes, the master bedroom is usually quite a bit larger than the other bedrooms and will of course differ in size depending on whether you have a house, a town house or an appartement down town. Not sure if it is possible to say that there is a general rule on bedroom sizes.

I am not sure blue is that common, like yellow, grey and brown seems to be more common. White and red are still sold cheap as it is some tax reduction thing or something, like farm paint. I think it is sort of illegal to put up a tall fence on residential housing, it is more for workplaces, however people will most likly react very rash if discovering unknown adults in their property as it is very uncommon. The washingmachine have to be in a room with a drain.

Its fun when a Portuguese can learn us Norwegians about our ways. I did not know about the colour thing on the houses, but when you mention it, it make sense. (i know that the red colour they used on barns comes from rust that they put in the paint, and that the living houses used to be white) Of course this does not count to day, to day they simply use the colour they like best, many find the red colour to be more cosy. :) When it comes to the size of the bedroom, i think it comes down to the fact that it is more easy to keep a small room warm in the winter then it is with a big room. (that is just a guess) I know that it was normal to have really high rooms in the 18 hundred (3-4 meter from the floor to the roof) and that takes a lot to warm up..(that was mostly in the cities) I discovered a strange thing about really old houses here in Norway(at least in Telemark) i have fixed a lot of old houses from 17 hundred and early 18 hundred. And in many of them i have found small children shoes build in to the corner of the houses inside the wall. Not in pair, just one shoe in different corners, and it has always been very well made shoes. I have tried to find out why, but have not found any answers, but i suspect it was about some superstition. :) (i have not asked any historians directly about this, just done some internet search)

Clean colors = clean house. Clean house = workforce. Put 2 and 2 together...that house is rich...or so they thought...some people thought.

In Norway do they take their shoes off in any stores? Say if you go into a really nice shop? Is that a thing? Just curious! I would love to go there someday.

No, shoes are always kept on in shops. As mentioned in the video you usually take your shoes off when entering a home. You can perhaps leave your shoes on if it is a dressed up party. At most office work places you can do whatever you want; shoes on, shoes off, crocks! 😄

Alt i denne videoen er sant! Kanskje ikke det om Portugal men det om Norge er 100% sant!

Of course take shoes off inside. The shoes are dirty. Been everywhere with them. Rude not to take of shoes off inside. Many lives in appartments too, in big block of flats. Not all have houses.

It sounds like you have only lived in cheap cramped apartments, and not your typical Norwegian house (larger bedrooms, and bathtubs). Also, I have two microwaves! :D

How do you live in Norway? Do you have a visa? Or you hold a Norwegian passport as well? I have Portuguese passport but I heard Norway is not part of EU.
@SY-bn3iz3 жыл бұрын
It is not part of the EU but part of the EEA and as consequence has freedom of movement with EU countries! You can, therefore, go with your Portuguese passport :)

You can safely go to Norway with normal portugiuse passport. No worries or problem. Use visa and Mastercard or creditcard to pay every where. No need for cash, almost everywhere we pay with cards. Welcome to Norway, spring and summer is best. Beautiful colours.

What’s the point with a large bedroom?
@VideoDepot9994 жыл бұрын
Its a matter of perspective .I'm Portuguese and I always thought our beds were normal. In Norway i would ask why do you have small beds?
@vidopnir4 жыл бұрын
Well, the (almost) only thing you do in a bedroom is to lay on your bed. As an norwegian I preffer to have more space where I am awake, like the living room for an example

What the fuck??? Everybody take the shoes in my house. I only accept one exception if somebody from a company come to make some work inside my house. But after they leave, i'm going to wash the floor. We (at least in Lisbon) all my family even cousins do the same and take the shoes off. Using a open kitchenthe result is the entire kitchen and living room smelling the food all day long. No way i want a open kitchen, if i'm going to cook i want the smell stays only in the kitchen. Imagine make french fries and the smell stay for the entire day. Even the kitchen with the extractor fan can have the smell a lot of time. that socializing if i'm alone with my wife i'm helping her in the kitchen (the kids are playing or make their homework from school), if i have my brother, my wife is in the kitchen with my sister in law and me and my brother are repairing something in the house, or in the garden make the barbecue... Our kids are playing. Bidet is not only to wash private parts. We can use to wash clothes at least when are a few. I use to wash my cloth in the summer when i was single. Because i use a T-shirt and shorts i use to wash there and not in the washing machine, easy and in the summer i wash only one shirt one short one underpants, because my work clothes is washing in the company (Hotel). Right now my family use a lot after we came from the beach to wash the bikini and swimsuits with soap powder and water after put in clothesline to dry (to use next day) when we are in our beach house in holidays. Sorry but any coffee machine (even that in the Picture) can do any kind of coffee (expresso or american style). wen you going to buy you can choose what coffee you want. I have in my house dolce gusto machine. There is in Norway to. www.dolce-gusto.no/ You have expresso coffee, Grande coffee, etc. Like in Portugal with that machine you can buy and have any kind of coffee even cappuccino. But you dont have Sical (great expresso Portuguese brand coffee), because is one the Portuguese coffee brands. www.dolce-gusto.pt/capsulas-cafe/expressos/2x30-cafe-expresso-sical
