If you started 1/2 mile north of the equator you'd end up a mile west of where you began. Or, put another way, your starting point would lie one mile to the east of your end point.
If you started on the north or south pole you'd end up where you started.
Or if you started 1.159 miles north of the South Pole. The first mile south would put
you .159 miles north of the South Pole; the mile west would encircle the pole, putting you back at the beginning of the westward mile; then go north 1 mile to return to your starting position.
