I grew up in rural Canada, but have been living in major metropolitan areas for most of my adult life. It still surprises me when I learn there are other adults that don't know how to chop wood, start a fire, work basic tools, etc.
Are chopping wood and starting a fire common activities in the metropolitan area where you live?
Going to the beach or camping, not unusual to start a bonfire.
Suburbia I'm canda just mean the great outdoors
I have no earthly idea how to do those things and I'm from Canada. It's also a gender thing if you're older like me.
You're an immigrant or from the city? Everyone from rural areas know how to do it
From the city.
