Confidence/Orientation

From Tanya

I felt hopeless(as always!) at finding my way – on campus, in town. Maybe it is personal, but also cultural. I have an English friend who loves reading maps – for him maps are like books, but not for me. My socialization did not involve map reading as there was little travel, mostly organized, hence I never learned that skill. Irena could have felt similarly – am wondering if hers was also cultural…Seems very much so…
