What do you say? In addition I can mention that the islands are duty/tax free, so things like electronical equipment is quite cheap. Also alcohol...

So long as you have a ton of money Kim, New Zealand welcomes your vast amounts of rich american capitolist funding!
Course if you don't.. Australias not too bad either. Thats where we send New Zealanders in need of funds. 
Gotta say I'd rather live in Canada or the UK (or europe really) while the US is a nice place to visit.. I was more than happy to leave it after 3 months.
I guess its a bit like anything, somewhere or something else is always ncier than what you have at the time.
Though there's nothing like "coming home." |

@kristaga--beautiful! 
i'm actually thinking of going on a world trip next summer 
Maybe i could stay at Norway, then go to the UK (and bunk up with mehts and get drunk on bad beer and wine  ) and then finish it off with a frankfurt/australia romp!

@kim - if all else fails, simply jump on the next flight to the UK, and when you reach customs, simply say your seeking 'political asylum' from an undemocratic, autocratic far-right country that tramples on human rights if you don't fit in with their 'moral majority' view of life.  
You'll get in no problem!!
Cynical? Moi?
EDIT: Just realised this makes me sound very anti-american - I'm not, I just don't like the current administration and a lot of what they stand for!

Part time workers in Norway often work for the Norwegian Mail, for some company that wash building interiors, helping hand at old peoples' home or etc...

Not really as long as you do a job that doesn't have much communication. Most everyone below 50 years of age speak English, it is a compulsary subject/class in school.
But some people have forgotten their school knowledge, they understand but they don't (dare) to speak.
Above 50 year old people: it depends on the person if he/she knows English. Many do, often because of their own interest. Persons born in 1947 were the first to get the opportunity to learn English in primary school.
Edit: Had to correct my grammar before anyone noticed...
