Doesn't make much difference really, some workshop manuals say start at the furthest point and some say start at the closest point. I always start at the closest, having bled thousands of brakes over the years as a vehicle tech, I have never had a problem. I'll be servicing my Jimny this week end and I'll be bleeding the brakes, I will be starting at the drivers front wheel. 
You wouldn't do any harm bleeding it either way mate.

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

There is a bleed valve on the brake compensator above the rear axle that bleeds the front brakes. :huh:
