- taneq 8y agoI do the same, without really thinking about it. Changing hemispheres messed me up in terms of direction sense. Even though I consciously knew things were reversed, my "feeling" of which way North was was backwards the whole time I was north of the equator. (It didn't help that cars were on the opposite side of the road too, so my baked-in "look left when you approach a road" response was suddenly not so helpful.)
