Fermented Baltic herring

This Saturday we visisted Paul's parents in their summer house where they had a "surströmingsskiva" (vodka party with fermented Baltic herring). It was an interesting experience and we felt that we will need more training to fully enjoy this Swedish delicacy ;-) On the Sunday we visited Anna and Niklas in their new house in Rimforsa and had delicious coffee prepared by Adolfsson himself. Thank you all for hosting us!

Why do both of you need to train? Paul, you are living in Sweden from your birth :) and your parents were able to study you to do it, am I wrong?
