What do we call a person who easily forgets directions or routes?

I googled but couldn't find any appropriate term.

Best Answer

Normally I just say someone (me, let's say, just hypothetically) has "a bad (terrible) sense of direction."

Apparently a more serious condition exists that causes sufferers to get lost even on common paths and turned around in their own houses. This is called developmental topographical disorientation and is described in this news feature.
