My mother is from Norway and my father from Germany. Naturally they learned each other's language. They live in Germany.
When my father had business partners from Norway over he was delighted to impress them with his linguistic prowess. During a coffee break he went over to them, listened for a bit and then joined the conversation. They couldn't understand a single word he said because my mother is from Mosjøn and he only learned her dialect.
Mosjøen is among the Northern Norwegian dialects. It's quite different from that of, for example Oslo. But once you start to learn northern norwegian, you probably understand many other regions as well.
Source: I'm northern norwegian. My mother is also from Mosjøen, coincidentally.

I had you tagged as "likes to play around with tags".
