Same thing here, we have to learn English in primary school. No way around it. 
It makes sense, if we only spoke Norwegian, or Polish, it would be very limiting. I picked up some Polish hitchhikers here a while ago, since all of us spoke English there were no language problems.

What was interesting was when I worked in Croatia. I grew up in Hamtramck, a Polish enclave in Detroit and would hear Polish spoken daily. When I first landed in Zagreb, the intonation and cadence of Hrvatska was so very familiar.

@Gerald Wilgus I think you mean "Hrvatska" (I know some Serbian, also known as Croatian). In Iceland everyone speaks English, even the old people. Culturally we are closely ties to the US, largely due to geography and because we had a US army base from WWII to 2006.
