New approach from Yourway2Norway – let’s talk more...
A new video is coming tonight, faster than you can say “gingerbread house” backwards.
This time, we decided to try something new. Inspired by talking-head YouTubers like Camera Conspiracies and Casey Neistat, we filmed a video where Ronald talks freely—no strict script, just thoughts and reflections. Our idea? To reconnect with the viewer in a way that feels more personal. We’ve noticed that some of that connection can disappear when videos are over-scripted, so this time we dialed it back.
We also played with tone—literally. Ronald kept a lower voice, aiming for a calm, one-on-one vibe. But of course, there’s still a topic.
We’re diving into a serious issue this time: discrimination in the Norwegian job market. A recent study sent 3,000 fake job applications to employers across Norway, representing 37 different countries and nearly every ethnicity. The results? Those at the bottom of the ranking had 65% lower chances of getting a callback—all because of their name, religion, or gender.
This is what Ronald reflects on in the video—raw, direct, and maybe a little rambling, but we think it works. It’s a different kind of video for us, and we’re curious to see what you think.
The video premieres tonight at 9 PM Norwegian time:
• London: 8 PM
• New York: 3 PM
• Tokyo: 5 AM (Tuesday)
• Kathmandu: 1:45 AM (Tuesday)
• Tristan da Cunha: 7 PM
• Pitcairn Islands: 10 AM
• McMurdo Station (Antarctica): 9 AM (Tuesday)
• Bouvet Island (uninhabited): 9 PM
Casey Neistat, we’re coming for you.

Why do we brag this much? Sorry, we do'nt agree that Norway is the BEST country in the world. See it before moving to this paradise.

Ok folks @Y2NORWAY.
We have been down - always down - too late. The frequency that YouTube throw down our throats with some kind words make us stressed. Please, YouTube, we are old. And we do not give a D****.
We THINK the new video will be in the old spirit of Yourway2norway - at least we hope so.
Always a struggle to find the structure, but think we got it now. HOPEFULLY. Found the chapters - and give you a sneak peak of them. Do NOT look forward to it :) Video will be out between Christmas and happy Easter. LOVE! Best Mads :)

As a longtime smoker (unfortunately, I can't quit—it's almost like quitting heroin, according to some medical journals, depending on genetics (I cling to that excuse)), it's interesting to see the makeovers that the Norwegian authorities give our cigarette packs every now and then to make you
1) not start smoking or 2) quit.
A few years back, the authorities introduced a standard for all brands, and researchers were tasked with finding a universal color that would be the most disgusting of all.
The result was the green color on the Norwegian packs. Interestingly, this design was later praised as delicate and modern by top international designers, who saw it as a great brand color and style. Along with the green color, the scary images on the packs gradually disappeared. Our scariest images are almost impossible to remember, but I recall that in Portugal, they always managed to top our images by a factor of 10,000,000.
The one I found particularly gross was a picture of a woman coughing up blood, which felt more relatable than images of charred fetuses or THIS **legendary hole**.
It reminds me of the classic "Death
Becomes Her" with Meryl Streep, right?
Do you have warnings on your packs, and what do the worst ones look like?Happy holidays. Warm rusty hugs from Mads.

20:15 - Be there or be square. Otherwise, you know where you're ending. Not upstairs, rather downstairs. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FILM, EVER MADE BY THE YOURWAY2NORWAY-TEAM.
It’s about:
Escape misery. Explore Norwegians' trivial, quirky and sometimes boring everyday life - conveyed through fresh cucumber news (silly season news).
The politicians have gone on holiday. Norwegians can’t handle the miseries of war and unstable times any more, and we seek comfort and entertainment through typical Norwegian headlines, devoid of seriousness and pessimism. We call it cucumber news in Norway, or silly season as it is called in the UK.
If you are going to Norway, live here already, or intend to work here in the autumn, in this video you will find out what Norwegians are talking about and are concerned about in 2024.
In this sarcastic and easy-to-digest video, you will learn why popcorn is destroying our beautiful fjords. Why Norwegians cry extra this summer. Why the authorities think whale meat is healthy. Why our Prime Minister claims that his Minister of Justice is not a basic b*tch. Why the summer is cancelled. Why the tourists to Norway this year are happy about the miserable and cold Norwegian summer. And why Elon Musk has unfriended Norway.
Ronald and Mads run through parks and streets in Oslo in their typical self-deprecating fashion while they deliver quick, small and unique Norwegian summer news.
