The reference point for her direction is the corner of the streets you're at. She tells you to walk three blocks west. It is like if you were at 5 cm on the ruler and your friend tells you to go 3 cm to the west (like to the beginning of the ruler).

However, not to get lost, you need to clearly understand where the four cardinal directions (North, South, West, East) are.
