Spotting whales

Minke whale

Ewa Björling tries to spot a couple of minke whales which usually patrol the fjord outside Nuuk in Greenland. But she’s also hunting for new Nordic areas of cooperation (picture above).

(Not composed to eat everything at once.)

From Norway I choose brown cheese. I have a Norwegian goat’s cheese in the fridge right now.

From Denmark I’d say butter. Like so many others I love Danish butter. But Danish salami is good too.

Since I suffer from celiac disease I choose Finnish bread. They have a fantastic, dark bread. There is also a lot of game in Finland.

Iceland and Greenland means fish and prawns.

From Sweden the list is long: Elk, reindeer, caviar, Arctic char and surströmming. And the World’s best cheese - Västerbotten cheese.
