Learn to endure

Did this as a 14 year old at scout camp on a rainy Baltic island.

No it wasn't Gotland, but a small island called Rånö. Very wet that summer. Loads of midges.
Note from asker:
Thank you Agneta, Gotland was it? I couldn’t think of the English but I heard the concept being discussed 18 years ago when I spent the summer on Norrbyskär
Peer comment(s):

agree Matt Bibby : Yep. For me it was fly-fishing in Råneå, summer 2005. I still have nightmares.
