I think people from outside Europe would find a Norwegian lady pretty exotic. A tiny country with a language
not known to outsiders. What's not to like?

You should travel to Minnesota, North Dakota or Wisconsin in the US. We have a surplus of Norwegian heritage speakers here.

The only advice I could give is have fun with it Solfrid. Be whomever you want to be from wherever you want. Do not let other people's morality issues on it bother you.

Tiny population, I meant to say.

So, anyway, Solfrid Cristin (if that is your real name), how did all of this turn out?

My real name is Solfrid Cristina -there was not room for the last a :-) And I ended up using my own name and
nationality. I have gone dancing twice, once in Norway and once in Belgium. Here I went with a girl from
Singapore and one from Peru, and I simply could not be bothered to try to fake another nationality. And in
Belgium I went out with a Ukrainian friend (and could very easily have faked being Russian or Ukrainian,
since we were already speaking Russian) but I figured I was exotic enough as a Norwegian. I am so bad at
lying anyway so it was probably just as well. However I had a great time, which was the main thing:-)
