So this cool guy Mohamad Karbi asked me to write a little bit about Sweden on his blog. Home sweet home that I miss dearly (no, Dubai isn’t too shabby).
What I wrote? Don’t be lazy, click on the link. I kind of explained how Sweden represents peace, stability and rotten fish. Oh and snow. And I didn’t swear once.
I’m pretty much a diplomat now.

Roxette! I can still sing every word from the album ‘Look Sharp’. Sweden sounds beautiful and I love the winter so I should venture north some day. And lol “dark as the devil’s ass.” Great post, my friend!

“She’s got the look” was the first song I learnt. I sang to it before knowing a word of English. “Look” sounds like “lock” in Swedish which means lid. So I always assumed that they were singing about lids. Logical..
Thanks for reading!

Rotten fish? You mean sour herring? Then is stockfish more common, and sooooo good with mustard sauce. 😁

Yes, surströmming! Not for the weak hearted. Stockfish…is that lutfisk you mean? I didn’t know the English word.
Thank you for reading about our cool country.

Yes, stockfish is lutfisk. 🙂 One of my buddies bought sour herring one time for a summer party, it smelled so bad so they didn´t even taste it. They let it be on the table outside over the night, not even the crow wanted them! 😂😂😂😂

It smells worse than it tastes … my dad always eat it so we all evacuate the house when he opened a can..
