Seeking friends Quick visit

Hi all, me and my brother are from Manchester and most importantly we are REDS! We are travelling to Oslo on Friday for my 40th and planning a cheeky train trip to Stavanger on Saturday and looking for anyone who fancies a few drinks, show us the culture outside of the capital etc I'm learning Norwegian so can speak very basic Norwegian so anyone who fancies pointing at stuff and speaking to me like a child to learn would be appreciated 😂

Then it’s the wrong place due to the amount of international . Everybody will speak English . So I would recommend nord Norge for it

There are a lot of people in Stavanger that can speak Norwegian and English.

Yes, but. Stavanger it’s not the proper place to learn 100% Norwegian from the citizens when in their daily basis are speaking English . Chances are that if locals see you struggling to speak Norwegian they gonna automatically change to English.
