    Haven't had that many sharks in Finnish waters. I think they caught a spiny dogfish a few years ago, though.

    The other species that is found in Finnish waters maybe once every two or thee decades, is the porbeagle.

    Move to Finland, you don't even need to own land to be able to hunt and gather here.

    When I left school (at 14 years old) my first job was as a fisherman off the East coast of Scotland....we caught a Porbeagle once, looks just like a miniature Great White!

    But are you allowed to live outside society, in that way?
    Anyway, I was thinking that at my age hunting and gathering might be easier in a more 'Mediterranean' climate!

    I don't think they'll let you do that, they probably want you to pay taxes.

    The Mediterranean climate isn't very hospitable, though. Not much to hunt or gather.

    Exactly. But it's not fair... I think it's our right to live as nature intended, if we wish to do so.

    I know! But I'm a bit of a sun worshipper!

    You could probably live that way in areas that haven't been claimed by any nation. International waters and maybe the polar regions, even though they have been claimed.

    Come on, what's more fun than clubbing seals and penguins for a living?

    See you later, James.
