Not trying to be a nitpicker but I'd have thought we'd want an adjective modifying the future here. How come an adverb is used ? Thanks.
Wiktionary lists "far away" both as an adjective and an adverb, and their context for the adverb is in my opinion similar to our sentence: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/far_away
The place where the future is "somewhere far away".
We do accept an adjective, which is "odległa". But the adverb sounds way more natural to me personally.
