Where am I?

Question

You know the old faithful riddle about the hunter and the bear (1 mile south, 1 mile east, 1 mile north. What colour was the bear). My question is;
where else on this planet could you go and do the same movements ( 1 mile south, 1 mile east, 1 mile north) and end up exactly where you started? 
North or South pole is not acceptable as an answer; neither is "down a mineshaft" - that is not travelling South, it's falling.
First correct answer gets the points!

??????? · Accepted Answer

any point on the circle with a radius 1 mile around the north pole works as a starting point.

starting point would be the summit of Mount Everest. 1 mile south will take you down the face of Everest, 1 mile east could theroectically take you right round the mountain to the same point, then you climb back up 1 mile but in a  northwards direction back to the summit.
