Antipodean Weirdness

Two things about being in Australia spin me out:
1. Sunny windows face north.
2. Orion is upside down in the night sky.
Of course I understand why these things are but northern hemisphere living has me oriented* the other way. Other hemispherical differences, like opposite seasons and solstices, don’t phase me in the least.
*Actually, is there a north-south word pair like orient & occident?
