Yeah in the city I grew up in, I can find my way like a taxi driver, it’s exciting when I get lost because it doesn’t happen much, and my kids used to think it was funny that once we had been to a venue somewhere by car (like a gym meet in another city) I could always get there again without looking at a map or address, I HATE the audio navigation while driving, would rather wander, I’m not easily turned around on city streets, I am well oriented in the world but
Out in the wild? Useless. I had a friend though who was so good at knowing which way she was facing, you could blindfold her and spin her (like for pun the tail on the donkey game ) and she would walk always in the right direction, could feel where north/south were even while blind.
