It's a lovely name! What I really want to know is, is it still pronounced like "Croatia"? In my mind you could kind of do it like "Hro-vaisha" maybe? Maybe someone who knows tha answer will show up!
Pretty sure it is actually just the longest international border in the world. I guess Chile and Argentina might be close, maybe Russia and somewhere, but USA Canada I reckon is the longest.
I teach at a secondary school in the UK, in a classroom with no external windows (but with air quality monitors). After 1 hour of 30 teenagers the co2 will be at around 2000-2500ppm which I can confirm is stuffy. Highest I've seen is in the next door classroom which made it up to 3800ppm back in the summer.
It really does make you (and the kids) feel really dopey, so not exactly ideal.
Not sure if you mean per year but mortgages are generally going to be over much longer time periods. A couple who I know are looking to buy somewhere new and are looking at getting £400k mortgage or thereabouts. With rates as they are now, and over 25 years, they'll end up paying back £900k!
Not sure this comment deserves downvoting. As a teacher (UK) I get 13 weeks off a year, which is pretty much all time off (no expectation to prep/mark). Private sector friends tend to get around 4-5 weeks max. Similarly, the pension is far better than private sector pensions.
Whilst I might be able to change career for more money, I'm not sure it would be a net benefit, even for 50% more.
That said, the "work time" as a teacher is fairly full on, at around 55-60 hours a week for me, so that's some form of trade-off. You do have to like doing it!
Someone hides a camouflaged container in a slightly interesting place (e.g. behind a statue, near an old church, some place with a nice view) and registers the GPS location, usually on an app. In the container they'll put a small (sometimes tiny) notebook and sometimes a little trinket of some sort. They may also put a couple of text hints on the app as to the container's exact location.
You then use the app to navigate to the GPS location and search for the container. Put your name/nickname in the notebook, take/swap/leave a trinket, and re hide the container.
We do it most often when we're on holiday with our kids (both under 10), it's usually a nice way to explore the area you're in, since the locations have generally been chosen by someone with a good knowledge of the local area. There's only been 1 so far we've been unable to get, and that's because it's 15m up a big tree and we don't have any climbing gear!
As someone else said, there are some difficult ones that require climbing gear (which reminds me of playing various MMOs) - one in my town is about 15m up a large tree!
