I’ve lived in this city for years. YEARS. Yet, somehow, I managed to get completely lost—on a street I’ve walked down a million times.
It all started when I decided to take a shortcut. Spoiler: It was not a shortcut.
Thirty minutes in, I realized I had no idea where I was. My phone was at 5%, my GPS was useless, and I had to do the unthinkable...
I asked for directions. Like a lost tourist in my own hometown.
The guy I asked looked at me like I had zero survival skills (fair) and pointed to the street right behind me. I was literally one block away from where I needed to be.
Yeah. Never taking shortcuts again.
