You're a man, so the universe is in your pants. Whip it out and measure.

There is no specific geographical location for where the universe starts. We have a when but not a where. The reason is that space-vacuum does not exist independently. It is created with the expansion of the universe. As to where it ends well that is relative. From our point in space the universe "ends" at about 15 billion light years from here. Anything that recedes at the speed of light it's light will never reach us so that makes it the "boundary" of the OBSERVABLE universe. But here's the catch. If somehow you could get yourself to that boundary you would be facing exactly the same situation. A new limit will appear. and so on.

check out "ASTRONOMY DEMYSTIFIED", or books by Patrick Moore or Stephen Hawkings.
they does shed some lights to me as how the universe would have shaped - just like our milky way galaxies, but alot more wider, and farther.
