What have the pop band from the 80s got to do with the direction? Is there some code in their lyrics that will point her the right way?
Or just ask them which is west and they can point you towards it? Your not a compass needle lol, what is that assumption.
how do people not orient themselves?
The birth of the GPS. Basic navigation is a dying skill, a lot of people don’t even know what to do with a map without a big blue dot showing where you are
Everytime I grt lost I just return home to get my compass and get on with my day
Legitimately, how do you? Without prior knowledge of the direction you are facing and the sun is right above you or you can't see it.
Cardinal directions have always been hard for me and I'm only now just starting to use them out of job necessity.
Left and right takes a second most of the time, ask me to look north and it's going to be a long while.
If I'm somewhere new or lost like op, it's just cruel to say "go west"
Not trying to be facetious, but you just kind of do it. I think it might be something that you just subconsciously keep track of once you really become aware of it. I remember it seeming like magic until I was maybe 15 or so, and then I had landmarks for each direction in my mental map and could figure things out in reference to them. After a bit of that, I could mostly stay oriented when traveling by land, and now it's not an issue even when I fly somewhere. I went to England for the first time last year, and I had the cardinal directions sorted probably by the time I'd walked from the train to my hotel.
Once you've got it down, you just sort of do it on autopilot.
It's easy. When you imagine south as a north being on the top then west is on the east side from it.
I have problems telling right from left. At least I'm the moment, if I take my time I can tell.
But I almost always know my cardinal directions
If you extend your thumb and first finger, the L shape that is the correct way around is on your left hand.
All roads lead to East New Westersouth.
East? I thought you said weast.
If you are confused, check with the sun. Carry a compass to help you along. Your feet are going to be on the ground. Your head is there to move you around.
Stand in the place where you live. Now face north.
When you're lost, walk downhill, or downstream, until you reach the sea, or a McDonalds.
It's that way right where I'm pointing
