i tend to go left when I first arrive somewhere new, hoping that it won't take me to my destination and I can have a wee explore, this is mostly because of the 2D platformers from the youth where it'd be left to right, so i kinda associate heading right with heading the way I'm supposed to be going

Bit of a stupid reason, but it's how I work it all the same. Can't say it always works that way, but old habits die hard etc
