Hello, friends! Welcome to 51³Ô¹ÏÍø. My name is David Nikel, a travel writer who moved from Birmingham, England, to Oslo, Norway, in 2011 and hasn’t looked back.

I’m now a proud Norwegian citizen. But the road to get there has been a long and complex one. That’s why I run 51³Ô¹ÏÍø. It’s got everything I wish I knew when I first moved here, from relocation advice to travel tips.
