I would personally just treat whatever direction I'm facing at the time as North and go from there.

East is sunrise. West is sunset. The sun will also always be slightly south and even more so in the winter (unless you're in the southern hemisphere then it's slightly north).
If your local area has some kind of landmark like a big tower, or a big lake, learn where that is relative to you and use it as a reference point. For me, I live near a big lake and it's always south of me. It might be easier for you to ask yourself "which way is the lake?" instead of "which way is south?" or whatever your landmark and direction happen to be.
I mean their profile pic is them outdoors on a paddle board, so first impressions is yea maybe you do know cardinal directions? Anyone who spends extended time outdoors should.
Opposite to the east.
The brainrot is strong in that one.
What have the pop band from the 80s got to do with the direction? Is there some code in their lyrics that will point her the right way?
What, doesn't everyone have a haptic compass belt?
Go west. Life is peaceful there. Go west. Lots of open air.
East? I thought you said weast.
Or just ask them which is west and they can point you towards it? Your not a compass needle lol, what is that assumption.
It's that way right where I'm pointing

Wheat. <I only started remembering which side west is (relative to north) when I started thinking of "the wild west" and then thinking of where the wild west was. Still can't use it in the real world for anything though. At most if I'm at my own town I know approximately where north is, but anywhere else I'll quickly lose the sense of which direction is which.
- N - front
- S - back
- E - right
- W - left
The Sun rises in the East and sets in the west.
With East on your right and west on your left you would be facing north.
You can tell which side of the equator you are on by the way water swirls. Northern Hemisphere water drains clockwise. If water draining has no spin then you're on the equator.
Sometimes the moss on trees is enough of an indicator, as moss growing on only one side of a tree means no sunlight reaches it and the moss faces the direction opposite of the equator.
