彩色生活空间于 克里斯蒂安桑

Coliving in Kristiansand feels like you’re walking in a sunny, bright afternoon every single day, passing along charming wooden houses and eccentric shops on every corner.

As compared to other Norway destinations, wherein you don’t need to choose between winter or summer to visit, Kristiansand is known for being Norway’s ultimate summer destination.

Take in the multiple art destinations and museums around the city. From a museum that dates back to the Second World War to the street art and wall paintings found all over the town to the striking music and performing arts hall, you’re bound to find culture-filled spots!

And instead of fjords and lush forests, this city features white beaches and waterparks. In fact, if you love festivals, the city holds weekly concerts for free. They also hold the annual Palmesus, one of Norway’s biggest annual beach parties.

But as much as they can party hard, Kristiansand is mostly known for taking things slow and enjoying life as it happens. Head over to the Fiskebrygga Harbour after a day of hustling in your coworking space and cool down with ice cream, form connections with friendly locals, chomp on fresh shrimps or just simply take in the sunny afternoon.
