Everyone ought to try driving somewhere they haven’t been before without bringing gps or even printed maps.
Look at a country/state map to get an idea of the general direction beforehand, but then otherwise just drive there and follow the signs as you get closer.
That’s pretty much how I do it. The interstates in the US make it simple to get to just about any major city, and friends might boggle a bit, but they can tell you what the minor highway/street you need to look for and give you a landmark.
…It really drives home how the old horror movies weren’t unrealistic in folks getting lost randomly.
