I used to date an Estonian and I have some extensive knowledge of this.
The senior generation doesn’t know how to read maps.
I was in the car with said SO and the grandmother didn’t understand the GPS. Me, as an American, and not only that, a millennial.
I was pulled aside and told “they were never taught how to read a map while under USSR control to ensure they couldn’t leave”
The grandparents had no concept of N,E,S, and W.
It was very alien to me.
