I have heard that any structure enclosed on more than two sides will be considered to be indoors, and...... EvilGentleman: Expanding a bit on my previous comment, it all comes down to responsibility.

I like a lot of the people there, as you do in every country you meet good people and bad people....... chiamattt: Some people prefer living on the street. No responsibility. Not all of course.
