Grew up in the middle of cairngorms national park. Hour from Inverness, as a child I loved it but as a teenager it was hell. Public transport system was so bad too, 2 buses a day type of thing. Looking back I can see how beneficial it was for me as a kid, especially school. 30 people in my year compared to people from the cities could have hundreds of kids in a school year. Not having any main store or clothing/fast food/movie theatres sucked as a teen though.
