What do you get?

Learn Norwegian in real-life settings

You’ll practice speaking, reading, and writing Norwegian in authentic situations — in class, in the community, and during travels. This hands-on approach helps you grow confident in using the language naturally.

Cultural immersion every day

You’ll experience Norwegian traditions, lifestyle, and social customs up close. From shared meals to hikes and creative projects, you’ll get to live like a local while building strong connections with classmates.

Interrail through Europe

The highlight of the year is an Interrail trip through Europe, where you’ll explore several countries, cities, and cultures by train. This journey gives you a broader understanding of Europe while strengthening the friendships you’ve made.

Norwegian food and traditions

You’ll learn about Norwegian cuisine and seasonal dishes, and even cook traditional meals together. This gives you both language practice and a true taste of Norwegian hospitality.

Winter adventure in Norway

As part of the program, we embark on a Norwegian winter study trip — included in the tuition — to experience snow, skiing, and mountain life. This is a week of fun, teamwork, and immersion in Norwegian culture.

Hovden winter experience

We travel to Hovden, a true Norwegian winter paradise, and stay in a cozy cabin surrounded by mountains and snow. Here, you’ll cook, relax by the fire, play cards, and practice Norwegian in a warm, friendly atmosphere.

Meet real vikings

Experience history firsthand by visiting an authentic Viking village, where you’ll meet people who live and breathe Viking culture. Through crafts, storytelling and reenactments, you’ll feel how Norway’s past comes alive in the present.

Snow fun and creativity

Enjoy sledding, snow games, and building snow forts or lanterns, as well as snow sculpture making. These activities combine play, teamwork, and creative expression — all while learning new Norwegian words.

Relaxation and recovery

On the last day, we visit Hovden’s indoor water park, featuring water slides, hot tubs, and a sauna. After a week of outdoor adventures, this is the perfect way to unwind and enjoy warm comfort together.

History and identity

Learn about Norway’s journey from its Viking roots to modern democracy, exploring how history, nature and culture shaped its national identity. You’ll gain insight into the Viking heritage, traditions and World War II resistance that still influence Norwegian society today.
