His father is a fisherman who has learned how accurate and quick to cut off the languages of the bacalins. And it's not surprising how Petersen made rapid progress.

He believes that this job is a good opportunity for young people to earn enough money for things they dream of buying, such as wise phones, laptops, or even clothing.
Until today, I have saved enough for my U.S. trip. They'll enjoy the island between New York and Hawaii”, Petersen added.
Fishermen in Balstad traditionally donate the heads of young men's bacalans, who then cut out their languages that they sell for a kilogram of languages where about 6 euros is sold.
