Would you try whale in Norway?
When I was a journalist, I reported on a community effort that saved a Minke whale stranded in West Auckland, New Zealand. We are about as anti-whaling as we are pro-rugby One of the amazing things about travel is that it challenges perspectives. Often at home we are shrouded by our country’s culture, traditions and values and it can be hard to think outside the square and see beyond that. Travelling exposes us to different ideas and viewpoints, it often broadens our horizons and challenges our values, making us think about things on a deeper level. In Norway, whaling is a thing, and to a New Zealander, that is shocking. How can such an advanced country that gets things so right in so many ways still kill such an awe inspiring creature? The sale of the meat is easy to come by with Norwegian restaurants selling it as well as fish markets. Our friends in Norway asked us if we would like to try it. Norway - so beautiful and gained a number one spot in the World Happiness Re
