Oceania Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 (edited) I live in Italy but I've seen the Mediterranean sea only once or twice, when I was little. Which makes sense considering that I dislike that biome in general and I avoid it like the plague. The Indian Ocean is vastly superior. Lush and colorful tropics >>>> dull and depressing shrublands.

Jack. Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I’m from Australia and see the ocean literally everywhere I go. But a lot of our aboriginals have never seen the sea as they live inland and don’t typically travel to the coast - seeing their reaction is so special!

BGXKB Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I have a weird, I guess spiritual longing for being out on the sea and have visions of being out in a vast ocean even though I absolutely never have myself. TW: self harm Spoiler All of those landlocked countries are known to have the world’s highest rates of suicide. There must be something about the ocean that every human being just feels the need to experience at least once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything larger is considered illegal in landlocked countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dussel_06 Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 It’s the opposite for me. My country, Sealand, is sealocked so I haven’t seen the land for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YellowRibbon Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 (edited) I see the sea everyday... When I wake up in the morning I get up, then I open my windows and I scream "Good Morning, Pacific Ocean" loudly. My scream can travel in like 3 minutes from the central valleys of Chile to the seashore (where some people that I know live) and then my friend screams Good Morning back!!!

John Slayne Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I'm from a landlocked country and as a kid my parents took me to the sea for vacations many times. I live on an island now but I have only seen the ocean once in my time here I need to go more often, I absolutely love big bodies of water, especially the sea/ocean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamil24 Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Canada is not landlocked, but I don't live anywhere close to the actual sea. But Lake Ontario is so big it looks like a sea anyways, you can't see the other side. The first actual sea I saw was the Baltic sea in Poland.

I live in coastal area so I've always wondered what it's like for you guys I live in Paraguay and i don't quite remember how it was, because my family and i go on vacations like twice a year for as long as i can remember so it kinda feels very familiar to me, i love the ocean and everytime i see it i do all these activies just to explore a little bit more, not gonna lie the ocean scares me too but something about it's so fascinating, even the people that live near by it are different, they seem to be happier and more friendly, well not in jamaica tho, i was there just two weeks ago and they treated us like garbage, not a lot of latinos go there it seems and they hate people who speaks spanish, i befriended a group of argentinians there and they said the same thing, we got pretty much the same treatment but not the people from the anglosphere.

Nope, landlocked countries are completely devoid of water. It doesn’t even rain in landlocked countries so they have to import massive bottles of water just to keep their trees watered.
