When I first arrived in Norway, I was struck by the ridiculous number of baby carriages around the place. Norway, or at least Oslo – or at the very least, Grünerløkka – is serious about making babies. The sight above, in front of the newly-opened and rather popular Nighthawk Diner is a typical one.
It’s no wonder, though, when there is excellent paid leave for both parents and attitudes are such that having a baby during university or early career is not seen as terribly unfortunate.
