Introverts will love this video! Let’s see how far away from other human beings you can get by looking at the ten most remote and least inhabited places in the world.

With traffic jams, annoying neighbors, busy streets, and overcrowded malls, there have probably been plenty of times in your life when you dreamed of living as far away from other people as you possibly could.
From beautiful islands in the middle of the oceans with unique flora to lands of volcanoes, deserts with unbearable temperatures and extremely cold spots – the different points on our planet are so desolate for different reasons. Each of them has no or close to no population for their sometimes rather vast geographical territories.

There's one place on the planet nothing can compare to. Point Nemo. There's no land there, and you won't be able to bring home any souvenirs. It's just a spot in the ocean that’s 1,450 nautical miles away from the nearest land. If you’re there at the right time, you’ll be closer to the astronauts on the International Space Station than to any other human being on the surface of the planet.
