Hi everyone!
I'm here to share our language exchange server for English and French, hosted on the Discord application. It contains multiple channels for various educative needs, such as speaking exclusively in English or French both orally and via text, asking questions and sharing useful knowledge. We have a strong sense of community and I hope you'll be interested in joining us!
You can join by following the link below, and it will allow you to create a new account if you haven't already tried the software.

Bonjour à tous !
Je vous présente notre serveur Discord, qui vous promet une expérience de conversation très adaptée à l'échange linguistique. Il y a des salons pour ne parler qu'en anglais/français, pour poser des questions sur les langues, partager ses connaissances et bien plus encore! Nous ne sommes qu'un petit groupe pour le moment, mais notre communauté grandit chaque jour. J'espère que vous vous y intéresserez !

Hei alle sammen!
Jeg begynner å lære norsk som jeg har en norsk venn, og jeg vil gjerne studere i Oslo i 2018. Men jeg spiser ikke kjøtt eller fisk!
(I'll go to English now because that's all I can manage at my level)
I've noticed that a lot of the food in Norway is very fish-based or generally meat-based, but I've always been vegetarian. Although I'm considering stopping being vegetarian, I would like to be sure I can be comfortable either way before I go.
Now, I've done some research and found various blogs, but the problem is, these are all travel-related accounts of how people live. I understand at the very least that in somewhere like Oslo there are many restaurants with vegetarian food available and living the lifestyle is possible, however, my main concern is the social side of it as I'll be at university. So I have two questions:
-Do Norwegians generally have positive attitudes towards people who don't eat meat?
-Would it be easy to be a non meat-eater when I share a house with somebody, or go out for meals with friends? Would I be more of a burden because of the culture's usual food?
I find that, outside of a few curious questions, people in England will usually accommodate any dietary differences quite easily and I'm wondering if I'll have the same ease if I then go to Norway with the same habits.
Tusen takk, og jeg gleder meg å lære mer norsk med dere! :)
