I have synesthesia and I use colour and "feel" to remember things. I'm good with phone numbers and dates. I also use mapping a lot, where I see a picture in my head with things placed along in. For example, the year is on a ribbon of varying thickness and colours.

I did think this was how everyone did it. I was 20 before I realised synesthesia was even a thing because it seems so natural to me.
