here're some exapmles:

1)Percy Jackson and the lightning thief- the prophecy given clearly states Percy will "go west to face the god who has turned"
2) Mushrambo- throughout the show, Yakumo repeatedly says "Always facing west, to Shinzo" (the city the heroes are supposed to get to) 
3)In the Odyssey,Odysseus is trying to get back from Troy to Greece,heading west
4)the full quote which I used for the name:
For West is where we all plan to go some day. It is where you go when the land gives out and the old-field pines encroach. It is where you go when you get the letter saying: Flee, all is discovered. It is where you go when you look down at the blade in your hand and the blood on it. It is where you go when you are told that you are a bubble on the tide of empire. It is where you go when you hear that thar's gold in them-thar hills. It is where you go to grow up with the country. It is where you go to spend your old age. Or it is just where you go
5)"Go west" by pet-shop boys and "Going out west" by "Tom Waits
6) In the Wizard of Oz, the heroes set out to defeat the wicked witch of the west (guess which direction they go)
7) Broadly speaking, in the Old testement there is a tendency to view migration west as positive and migration east as negative (Jenosis 11/2, 13/12, 25/6)

I urge you to reconsider
