What mental games can I play to keep my brain occupied in the airport on an upcoming trip?
I'm autistic and want something to keep my brain focused on a trip I'm going on tomorrow.
I have a background in security and like being vigilant, so maybe something that could incorporate that? It would be fun to think of it as a mission. Obviously nothing that could have real-life consequences like "hide from any airport security you see".
I'm after suggestions of something I can play in my head involving my surroundings. I'm not talking about stuff like people-watching (it doesn't work for me, I get annoyed that I can't find out if my guesses are true or not). Gimme specifics; a task, a focus, something to watch out for that will give me a little dopamine hit when I spot it.
If I like your suggestion I'm happy to report back on how I did.
I also don't want something with a time limit, so nothing like "count how many 'x' you can find in 5 minutes". Just something casual.
I can't come up with ideas so any suggestions welcome. I hope I've explained myself okay, and if there are any questions, please feel free to ask.
