SURVIVALSwedes they know what wilderness is. Many Swedes also know how to survive there. You can eat nettle well and it is so strong that you can even make rope from the fibers. Real survivalers catch a nice fish with such a piece of rope, without a rod! But .... this is all for the advanced. Survivals start with making a fire to keep you warm in the forest. You will learn this during the kids survival training under the guidance of an experienced guide. Also to keep the fire burning, of course. Once the fire is crackling well, you can roast sausages on it.
