Im a Norwegian guy, currently in the town the furthest North in the world (requiring more than 15ish people)
Feel free to ask questions
How much does fiber internet cost in Svalbard? I'll be spending 3 months there doing work and need to know.
do you like boipucci?
>>57420243
It's pretty cheap, because of the conditions they got fiberoptic cables laid down in the 80s, so you get excellent internet everywhere
>>57420293
Cool.
>>57420274
Only if it comes with cute feet
>>57420166
Do you have with you at least 2 cheeseslicers? You never know
>>57420166
How do you spend your free time?
>>57420394
Nah, checked with the hotel beforehand, they confirmed they got cheeseslicers in every room plus an emergency storage
>>57420464
Up here? Drinking and masturbating. No tax on alcohol
Why are you there?
>>57420834
I work here some parts of the year
>>57420535
wew
I've never see the snow, how is it?
>>57421862
nigger
>>57421862
Pretty fucking cold
The snow is really dry up here, it pretty much crumbles in your hand. It very rarely snow in the town, the island has a desert-like climate
Have you ever been to Jan Mayen?
>>57422017
Nah, I work in Longyearbyen, and there is very rarely a reason to leave town
How good are the wages compared to Oslo or Bergen?
>>57422314
I dont even understand the tax system here but it seems similar after taxes, at least considering that nothing (food, alcohol etc) is taxed up here
How much was the flight
Have you ever ridden a talking polar bear that is also the king of all polar bears? If not, then why not?
>>57422599 I get the flight and a place to stay covered by my job, so I usually don't book the cheepest flights. But I think it's like 200 euros round trip from Oslo
>>57420166
Are you doing environmental research or something of that nature?
>>57422654
I dont trust polar bears, their noses are too long
>>57422755
Nah, im a measly employee in the service industry
>>57420166
Are there any qts to hook up with?
>>57422761
You're probably just a sissy faggot.
>>57423535
calm down or we'll take your land and bomb your civillians for fun
>>57423486
Not really
Sometimes some university students come over, but it's mostly 5-15 year olds and 40+
>>57423926
Damn, that sucks.
My friend has family somewhere up North, not nearly as far as you, and their town has a good many qts in it.
I love that there are no traffic lights there, easy, comfy driving
>>57423981
Yeah, mainland Norway is better for that.
To live on Svalbard you need to have a job on the island that provides an income sufficient to get you a place to live and food to eat. If you ever lose your income you gotta move. Nobody has ever died of old age on Svalbard.
do you ever go snowmobiling for miles and miles
why do you live there
>>57424562
Sometimes, gets old though
Work for when a relative leaves for the mainland
>>57424637
have you visited that soviet place yet?
Are you a virgin loser?
Why do people live on the island?
>>57424562
>google """""""""""street view""""""""""" snowmobile
>>57424680
Other than some touristy stuff I've never left the town
>>57424694
Not virgo
Loser, sure
Work, cheap alcohol and comfyness
If you were living in Svalbard you flag would be a stealth rare called "Svalbard and Jan Mayen"
>>57424911
Idk m8, im definitely in Svalbard
Have some glacier
>>57424911
That's like saying if someone were in the Vatican their flag would be the Vatican's, or if they were in the Pitcairn Islands their flag would be that of the territory.
>>57424911
I'm surprised people still don't know that is flag is only obtainable through proxies after all these years.

Are you gay?
>>57427823

>>57421862

No comfy snow island 4u
>>57427843
Are you gay or not?
Why is your flag not Svalbard?
>>57428442
I'll answer your question if you answer mine
:3
>>57428477
Some other anon said earlier that it's not in use
Personally idk
>>57428604
Are you working in the mines up there?
>>57428653
Nope, working in the service industry. I did work in the mines for a few weeks some years back, but they're not open atm due to the low coal prices
>>57428717
Is the island as /comfy/ as it seems?
>>57420166
>No Svalbard flag
It's trash
>>57428559
So you are a faggot. Why is everyone from Norway gay? What the fuck.
>>57428802
Depends, your drinking buddies are tired alcoholics in their 40s that seems tired of life, and drinking is pretty much all you can do here.
If you like snowy mountains and fast internet you'll probably like it
Personally im glad that I'm only here for a month or two a year
>>57427898
Africa starts at the pyrenees you idiot
>>57429011
>If you like snowy mountains and fast internet you'll probably like it
Sounds like paradise desu
>>57429116
You can also get guns here easily, as you'll need them to leave town
Except here you'll get chased by polar bears instead of niggers
>>57425119
there is a vatican flag though
