One of my initial issues, which would have been the same if I moved within the same town, will be finding my way around.
On a score of 0-10 my sense of direction rates about a 1. Found out it’s a back entrance to the new place, will have to get used to that. Anxious fear I go out of the flat to tentatively explore my surroundings and can’t find my way back to the flat entrance!

It’s centrally placed which is a big positive but will need time to find my bearings. Not easy when you can’t visualise the layout out of the surrounding area and make a mental map.
I think the inability to make a mental map makes the fear of getting lost stronger.

Would have been true wherever I was going to move to.

Do you have a smart phone you could use a map app?

Unfortunately no smartphone, and my map reading ability is poor.

I’m lucky when I moved back into town I was near where I went to 6th form collage, it’s just I don’t know all of the side streets, just the main roads…

I’ve been exploring, but I still don’t know how to get to the cricket grounds near my flat lol.
