OMG! That sounds exactly what a hytte should be! Small shack with amenities - not two tv rooms, sauna, jacuzzi etc. Sounds like she has my dream hytte 😎
If someone calls it their summerhut (hytte), they have at least one more, used for the winter. So your friend is rich. Many people only have one, and those who don't (like me, grew up very poor) are usually considered "lowered"-class.
Norway is, unfortunately, mostly about status and class, which is fucking horrible... First thing people ask is "what do you for a living" to figure out how much respect to give you. I hate it! I remember at a party with rich people; when asked what I did, I told then I was retired. They then asked if it was "early retirement because you cannot work?" I smiled and said no, I just don't need to work. They would then talk to me about investments etc instead of not talking to me at all... Fuck these people!!
It's different, but also really good! If you had it by itself, it's not a good experience. From what I've heard, the best way for foreigners to try brunost is on a waffle. You should try it!
I did something similar when I was 19 and shitfaced. I called my mom, telling her to contact my bank to block my card. And to contact my phone provider, because I'd lost my phone. I called her from my phone...
That's a fucking steal!
