How to budget properly for Oslo, Norway?

Hello! I’m going to Oslo for a solid 2 months for vacation but this is my first ever big trip outside of America. I have around 3 months to save up but I heard Oslo can be mad expensive (especially eating out) and I work a minimum wage job. I guess my question would be does anyone have any budgeting strategies to offer me wisdom (as I lowkey have a bad spending problem) or tips that they used when they went aboard in order to save money. I’m also worried about traveling to other countries for small mini trips since Sweden is right next to Norway and I know that’s also expensive. Any advice or tips is very much appreciated!!

Where to start with learning the language!

Hello! I’m traveling to Oslo, Norway from America for 6 months to study abroad and I really want to learn how to speak Norwegian(pls correct me if I’m not using any words properly!!). I fell down a rabbit hole on how Norway has different dialects so now im feeling slightly overwhelmed on where to start. I have a solid four months to at least learn the basics but I want to at least be able to hold small conversations with people. If anyone has any apps and podcast/TV shows for recommendations to help me learn the language that would be greatly appreciate!
