I cannot navigate without a map. I can learn specific routes to places after lots of repetition, but if I try to figure how to get somewhere by sense of direction and knowing where things are alone I will very likely have no idea where to go.
I’m the opposite. Hand me a map and I’m absolutely clueless. But if you tell me “xyz place is by [redacted] theater” I’ll be able to find it a lot faster than looking at any sort of map. Only works in my hometown, though.
I feel like that one is pretty common. My daughter is very frustrated that her friends could navigate anywhere and she’s clueless. Smart as hell in most regards, but can’t navigate
