e.g a woman living in the Australian outback may consider a place that is 100km away to be near due to the ability to directly drive between settlements across the outback
in the UK a place that is 100km away may take several hours to travel and may be considered as a far place
What are far places?
those that are distant
both near and far places may have a more emotional meaning
some people may get homesick if they're staying away for the first time in their lives even if they are only a 10 minute drive away they may feel 'far' away emotionally, even if they're physically close
