I suppose it would be mostly practical skills, cooking, fixing things. Usually had to be done by people themselves.

Maybe also mental things like navigating (with or without paper map) and remembering their daily and weekly agendas.

What other things would be a big difference with the people today?

    Actually a much better way was to use a street directory if you know your way around the town even a bit.

    You generally only had a street directory of your OWN town, outside of specific professional settings.
