@jk it's be interesting to compare notes sometime

i have very concrete "conceptions" of places in my brain that are formed on first visit. kind of a way i look at things re: physical orientation of the place vs. its surroundings. i will think, "this is north" (it may or may not be) and that affects how i see everything surrounding.

or like, going UP this hill feels THIS way. going DOWN this hill feels THAT way. some day i may prefer going one way or the other just due to that feeling.

it's really hard to put into words, or even understand it myself
