Nice try, but I do not think this method is effective and can work with most of bitcoin users. I think there is no use from memorizing the priv key or the passphrase because one can easily create dozens copy from it and hide them in different places or storing it in his email address then this will be enough and safe
A bit strange... I mean I appreciate the tutorial and all but... Why not just writing it on a piece of paper?
I mean ok it's not perfectly secure but... Come on...
To be stolen you'd need your piece of paper to be taken (so you'd need to be robbed, which is not very lucky already). But to be robed by someone having enough time to read your piece of paper and consider it interesting! So by someone having enough time to read it AND knowing enough about btc to suppose that it can be a secret seed!
I don't say it can't happen but... Come on... It can't happen xD

Great tutorial! I doubt many ppl have that confidence to memorize the seed which associates with some money. But we can keep practicing it.
Depends, written down things arent safe either, any burglar can obtain that easily.

Yep, this way you can hold bitcoins while you are on vacation.
If you fear that your hardware wallet gets stolen, just memorize the password for it and only input it in the wallet after you have arrived.
Many pickpocketers could target the hardware wallet in your pocket if you go out on the street, so it might be helpful in that case.

Thats an awesome move to make even a beginner keep his private key safe.
Still at times we will enter wrong details. So having few backups in the
form of paper wallet is helpful

Nice tutorial, but since i don' t have a good memory, i prefer to write my key/passphrase on a piece of paper and then put it in a secure place
nice tutorial, i apriciate it it may helpfull for the community
as for me just print out the private key and keep it safe or create a paper wallet, i think it's eassy

Thank you for this refresher. I remember using this route technique to memorize a whole deck of cards when I was younger.
In addition of what OP said, if something always makes you stumble on that imaginary route, replace it with something absurd. That should do the trick to remember it easier.

Nice share. 
I actually does this kind of memorization back on High school days on my army training. I had to know everything and be familiar with it as a Battalion commander.
Makes me realize I can also do this in my wallet, I don't have to search for that piece of paper where I wrote my codes.

Nice tutorial & I really appreciate the effort you've put into this. It'll probably be used by a lot of people but I wouldn't trust myself to remember anything 
I trust my ability to safely store paper wallets a lot more than my memory for something like this.
