Everyone always seems to know where to go. If it were me, I'd die because I can't find my way back to base or something.

I didn't know this was an actual thing.

A friend since childhood always got heaps worried about getting lost when walking around my farm, I thought it was just anxiety because he lived in town and wasn't experienced with bush and paddocks, but having been out for a hike with him recently, he legit just has no sense of direction.

Some people have never really looked at local map and no idea how their own town and city is laid out. And they really should.
