Quoting longinotti1:

"Where of it am I?" if it is ok for English.

neresi= where
neresinde= where of it

Türkiye'nin neresindesin? Which place of Turkey are you?
Okulun neresindeyim? Which place of the school am I?

It asks the exact venue. You can say:
"I am in Ankara" Ankara'dayım
and your friend asks:
Ankara'nın neresindesin? "Where in Ankara are you?"

The fist "-sin" suffix is not related to "you" pronoun here.

Evet Evet.

I don't think it can be said better in English.

Its a Song Title, (Asli Gökyokus) But in the song lyrics,

"neresindeyim, hayatin"

it is part of a possessive construction. (If you allow the word order to be reversed).

Now it makes perfect sense!

çok teşekkürler.
