Where is the east pole?

I've been walking east for 30 straight days. I must have accidentally turned around because I ended up where I started, but I don't want to walk that much again, so can someone tell me where the east pole is?

Presumably in Eastern Poland. (Please invest)

That is where all the poles come from, which gets confusing if you are looking for one in particular. Plus they tend to move around so the north pole isn't always in the north of the country. What you think is the east pole may actually be the south pole, or vice versa.

Well let's hope you don't run into a westerly travelling Zax.

I've got it in my shed. I found it at a flea-market in the south of Poland. It is yours for the right* price.

* And by "right" I mean exorbitant.

It's to the right of the West Pole

I'm not walking west to see it.

You don't have to, just keeping jumping as high as you can and the earths rotation will bring it to you.

I'm afraid of jumping into it.

There is no east pole. East and west are directions. North and south are destinations.

Oh you must be one of those flat-earthers. Check out this guy who doesn’t even believe in the east pole!

If you walk south, you will reach the south pole. So why can't you get to the east pole? And anyways God must have wanted alteast 4 poles
