    Trondheim - Norway

    I am starting an 8 week project in Trondheim at the start of June.
    Wondered if anyone had any advice, help, tips for Trondheim?

    I understand that between May 20th and July 20th, the sun does not set.. that sounds cool!!

    Hopefully I can find a serviced apartment rather than stay in a hotel for 8weeks! Gonna be flying home each weekend so would prefer to be able to leave stuff there rather than bring it home and back every weekend!

    I work for an engineering company whose manufacturing base is in Norway. All I can say is that everything from a toothbrush to a pint of beer is extremely expensive...

    The scenery is great however, and our place is not that far from Trondheim in Romsdal

    Have a good time,

    Coco, spent a week there, ITS FANTASTIC.

    Was there at age of 21 and i'm afraid i can't remember too much due to the sheer alcohol content that was consumed, it still ranks as the number 1 most drunk week of my entire life.

    The Trondhiem Technology Uni was well worth a visit if the still allow people to have a wander around.

    The roads are "fun", see if you can rent a car, trondhiem itself gave me the impression of being quite bowl like, my friend drove me around in a very fun and entertaining mini (i felt like the bourne identity car chase at times - it was January i was there so the 6inch+ of ice was the factor not speed)

    Very jealous

    Never been to Trondheim, just Bergen and Stavanger.

    Trondheim may be a bit less expensive than Bergen (not going to say cheaper, that would give the wrong idea) as I doubt it is a touristy.

    Scenery should be fantastic, and like TiG, I'm very jealous.

    it's a fantastic area to go to... just don't skimp on flights otherwise you'll be facing 6 hours in copenhagen waiting for you connection!

    I was in bergen and oslo this time last year, sandflies and light were a killer!
