North - the edge of the Arctic Circle north of Fairbanks, Alaska South - Invercargill, New Zealand East - how are we judging this? As close to the International Date Line as possible? If so, Gisborne, New Zealand West - Hawaii (as judged by the same idea as East)

Ooh! Hawaii is a good one as it's so near the International date line. You're in the far west there, possibly one of the furthest west places on Earth! Reykjavik is west of Thailand, as is India, and definitely as is Hawaii. If you mean Wellington, NZ, then that's the furthest east place but Chiang Mai could be an honourable mention as it's very 'eastern' culturally.

OP just said where have you travelled in any direction. Quite a bad question imo, nothing about culturally eastern or otherwise.

Reply

ArticulateAquarium@reddit

Indeed! I reread their post and there are multiple ways to answer it. I assumed just absolute NSEW, but it could be 'furthest from your home' or it could even be 'furthest from where you started'. I travelled from S Korea to New Zealand which was the furthest southerly journey, then returned so that was the furthest northerly one - but I've also been to Finland which is further north. UK to Korea furthest easterly, back to UK is furthest westerly, but I've been to Vegas too.

North: Latvia I think. North Korea and British Colombia might be contenders, I’d have to look at a map. South: King George Island, Antarctica East and West I’m not sure how to define? I’m based in Australia so going to Japan or China is actually travelling West to me. Regardless I’ve been all through Asia, Africa, North and South America and Oceania plus some of Europe so somewhere there. The West Coast US would be the furthest eastbound flight I’ve taken.

Redditman9909@reddit

I think you already have the right idea. The question is asking how far East or West you’ve been from where you live. Most people in the comments who seem to be a bit confused live in places like Australia or Alaska like yourself, which are both nearer to the easternmost or westernmost extremities at the International Date Line than most other people. Where you live (or nearby) may already be the farthest West you’ve been, unless you’ve been to Hawaii or one of the Aleutian Islands near Russia.

Reply

[-]

ArticulateAquarium@reddit

Surely, you've got the 'Far East' and 'Middle East' to relate to - where ever you are - although saying the sun rises in the east might be confusing if you're in Siberia (I expect, as it'll probably rise in the 'Far West'). I assume you're in the States so it rises in the east for you and sets in the west, and although you travel west to get to the Far East it's in the name. tldr; almost everything is west of the 'Far East'  >a few other people in the thread That's called 'the Bandwagon fallacy'. Admittedly, I'm from the UK and so probably naturally understood east vs west more easily. Also north and south are made up by us, with the poles helping us visualise something meaningless in space (there's no gravity and up or down in space). Greenwich isn't as obvious as the Arctic and Antarctica, obviously, just the first place to use it on maps I'm guessing.

North: Longyearbyen, Svalbard (78^o N) South: Punta Arenas, Chile (53^o S) East and west are more difficult since I've done several round-the-world trips in both directions and crossed the dateline on a cruise ship. But in terms of places closest to 180^o: East: Funafuti, Tuvalu (179E) West: Tonga (175W)

Given that I live on the west coast of Australia, in the Southern Hemisphere and I travelled to New York which is in a time zone that is 12 hours behind Perth, that had to be the furthest point west.
