I think people either have a sense of direction or do not. I think it is a natural thing.
Do you have natural sense of direction?
I don't. Ha ha. Instructions and directions for me must be kept in terms of landmarks and / or street names not in north, south, east, west terms.

@FayeHazel Thank you. I guess that is better than being lost in life.

I have a phenomenal sense of direction. I don't even have to think about where I'm going or where I am. I just do it. My internal GPS is on remote control.

My daughter is like that. She sure didn't get that from me, though.

I have no sense of direction. When I was sixteen I was in Tulsa, Oklahoma for a birthday party. Later, I left to go back to the Oklahoma City area. I ended up close to Joplin, Missouri.In my meager defense, I had never been to that part of Tulsa before, and interstate looks the same for hundreds of miles. However, in a moment of being candid: how did I not notice the stinking signs were different before I got Missouri?!

Oh dear... I can totally understand how that could happen though. And look what a cool story you can tell now. :-)

I don't know. I have this rule that always seems to work for me. When I get lost I take a right, a left, a right, a left until I recognize something.

Good plan. Like my dad says, if lost, keep driving. Eventually you find something you recognize

@FayeHazel That is funny. I had to use my sense of direction to get my husband on the highway coming home today.

I am a person that if I do not know where I am suppose to go does not use Waze or the other because people have been known to wander in wrong places so I ask people and keep asking till I get the right directions.

I have no sense of direction. I even need a map in my own town. I once had a new boyfriend and he was going to drive me home for the first time. He said: "Tell me which way I have to drive" Me: "Okay, let me check the map" He thought that I was joking. I wasn't
