No Visa? No Problem!

Welcome to Svalbard, Norway, the only visa-free zone in the world!

It doesn’t matter where you're from; if you can brave the Arctic chill and don’t mind the occasional polar bear sighting, you can live and work there as long as you like.

Now, before you start house-hunting in this frozen wonderland, there are some catches.

The cost of living is high, jobs are limited, and—fun fact—you're required to have a job or enough savings to support yourself because there’s no welfare system.

Oh, and the sun disappears for months at a time in the winter. But hey, if you're up for an adventure, this might just be the place for you!

Would you ever consider making a life in Svalbard? Or does the thought of a never-ending winter make you shiver just thinking about it? Let’s hear your thoughts!
