    I'm Australian, currently residing in Asia, Hong Kong.

    Norway I'm looking at specifically and it has only a three months working holiday visa.

      I'm looking to going to Norway as well, haha! True, but you can extend three months to six months when you're there. Although, finding a job shouldn't be that hard either.

        Are you going from UK -> Norway? I'm in the same boat! My girlfriend is a Norwegian resident, but I'm from the UK. I'm a director of a UK based company - so I'm looking into how the tax situation would work if I worked from Norway for a UK company. UK/Norway do have a tax treaty that means double-taxing shouldn't be an issue, but it seems confusing and there's a lot of different info flying around. Got any tips? :)

        Oh! I must have missed the extension - that makes sense in regards to a few other points.

        Problem is I'm looking at game design. While that scene is rapidly growing its still very small teams, which is the roadblock I keep hitting.
