Re:To the south
I am a native English speaker.
"He grew up in Gobi-Altai province *TO* the south" indicates that Gobi-Altai is further south from where you are now.
If you say "Gobi-Altai *IN* the South", then it would indicate that Gobi-Altai is in the southern part of the country or continent.
TO indicates a direction of travel.
The store is a mile TO the east.
IN indicates a place.
China is IN the East.

Re:Question on Japanese Titles
I think "Sama" is more polite expression than "san".
Usually it is used on business, when clerk calls the customer, or written on the polite letter.
"senpai" is for the elder people, who is in the same association ...school or club...generally it is used by student.

Re:Question on Japanese Titles
Sama is used for Gods and Emporers and the like, hence Megamisamaa. Kami = God, Megami might be Godess, not sure. But the sama just refers to her elevated station.
Chan is affectionate, kun is slightly more dismissive, I think.
I think you have san and senpai about right, but I think senpai tends to be used particularly for older classmates. And I've never heared of han.
Of course, I'm not Japanese, so I probably haven't a clue what I'm talking about...
