Check out Kiribati on google maps satellite. I think there is a flight there once a week. It is so so far away. But I’m fascinated.
Fun fact: my family had a claim on Howland island due to the Guano Island act. But wow… not much you can do with an island like that! It is the most isolated place on earth and there are no resources. Not even shade!

- RetroTechie 3y agoSadly it's a logical progression: as we build, pave & pollute everywhere, places 'untouched' by humanity become ever harder to find. And thus people go out & seek such places. Result: even fewer of them. Reminds me of how a blockbuster movie showing beautiful locations can turn those into to tourist hotspots. Often destroying such places' beauty.
