I've been in many a muddled situations because to me the American system of labelling floors is natural as the first floor you come to is called the first floor. Sensible! It took me ages to learn that as a Brit I had to go to the 'ground floor' if I wanted to get to the entrance. To me it's counter intuititive. Even now after all these years I still need to remind myself what floor I'm aiming for.
