Finally getting onto this site while switching continents!

[Christopher Andjasmine]

I've been travelling on and off for quite a few years and been all over North America from Guatemala to Alaska and everywhere in between. Finally saved up enough cash to get myself and my dog over to Europe for a while and just arrived in Norway. Thought I would finally see what this site us all about. I want to go down to Copenhagen and then over to Ireland. Open for new adventures, hanging out, road-dogging for a bit, parties, fests, sticking around for community projects. ALWAYS IN SEARCH of work gigs! Excited to have made my goal to finally travel this content filled with other culture and opportunities.

Get in contact with any advice, suggestions, news, etc.

Hey and welcome to Europe,

First of make sure your dogs passport is upto date and get any vaccines required or its going to be a pain the in arse to cross any borders outside of mainland Europe especially getting in to the UK or ROI.

Secondly, just go with the flow,

Sounds like some great traveling and more traveling to be had - welcome to STP!

Hey there, welcome to the StP website hope you'll enjoy the community and all it has to offer.
Secondly, welcome to Europe. Hope you'll have a kick-ass time over here and see a lot of great places. - This community isn't too far reaching on this side of the pond, but maybe once you hit the UK you'll be in and around other users of the site, so keep up posted where you're at! I'm in Denmark, though not relatively close to Copenhagen.

All the best with your travels man! I've never been to any of the spots you're heading to but I have been to Copenhagen for a few days waiting for a flight back to north america. Check out Freetown Christiania... probably the most interesting part of the city from what I've been told and from what I've seen. Lots of great dumpster scores.

I think she is a husky/german shepherd/ border collie. But Idk really. She is a smart and good looking mutt.

We made it! Great independence day in Bergen. Got kicked off the train yesterday and went on a 10 mile hike instead. In the heart if sogne fjord now thinking of going north. Found out Norway and other European countries offer seasonal residence permits, jobs including agriculture, tourism, and ski resorts. The agriculture here is strawberries and salmon, I spent last Sumner on a blueberry and vegetable farm in Maine and the winter snowboarding in Colorado. Shit is going to work out one way or another...

Indeed. Paper work stamped by Norwegian authorities and usda is valid 4 months in till I need official EU pet passport. Was going to get in Netherlands, Belgium, or Germany depending on price and where I ferry from (may go France straight to Ireland) because I have to get her re-treated within 5 days of entry into the UK for tapeworm and it makes sense to visit vet once for all needs when possible. What is ROI?, excuse my ignorance. Love it here so far.

I see...I think I'm going to like it here a lot. I don't ever want to go back to the fucking states, I hate being owned by them! Hopefully I find good ppl so in the unfortunate event I should get deported I never am at risk of losing my dog. Is there any other forums in Europe or Scandinavia for alternative socializing or work and trade? The states uses Craigslist.com for everything and I've noticed it's not big in Norway. How do ppl connect or find work and other opportunities on the internet?

Thanx!

Yeah...everyone love kobenhavn I hear. Dumpster diving is my game. I hear Christiana is autonomous. Sounds bad ass either way!

I meant to say dumpsters are great outside of christiania, although there is a free swap tent in christiania i got some clean mismatch socks from and unfortunately had no gear to leave there.

ROI Is Republic of Ireland, i.e. Not Northern Ireland , the United Kingdom is only England wales Scotland or Northern Ireland.

Well, there's a site called www.helpx.net which is used in scandinavia(and the rest of the world), it's a 20 euros for a 2 years membership. All or mostly volunteer work and no paid jobs there.

Yeah Craigslist exists over here but honestly I have never really heard of anyone using it. Gumtree on the other hand is a lot more popular. I've bought vehicles and got jobs using it.

Somewhat off topic, but Australia's craiglist is gumtree as well.
