replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4 Easy. Djibouti, Africa. Yes, high temps (times 118F), but what made it really bad was high humidity. #PTTravel

The guides at #Uluru are fond of telling you that you are often closer to the International Space Station than McDonalds #PTTravel A5

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A2: #PTTravel highest for me Salkantay in #Peru. Here I am at the top 4600m. Lowest, Dead Sea, #Jordan here’s the spot where it is claimed that Jesus was baptised.

@kate_frankie A4. Harbin in China was -30.
This is a tree that’s was sprayed with water and left to freeze!

@kate_frankie #pttravel A5: most remote? Humans are a resilient species; it's rare to be completely away from them. But in terms of distance from a "town", I give you The Aral Sea, and "somewhere in Mongolia".
Quiet places. Great skies.

@kate_frankie A5. Did a motorcycle trip on my own round Southern Loas.
Fine in the day, but driving at night and competing for road space with large trucks felt pretty isolating.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A3: #PTTravel Solo drive along #Namibia’s Skeleton Coast. Crazy windy, crazy foggy, crazy hot. Couldn’t even see the road sometimes. Crazy fun.

Hiking in different countries can feel remote. Just your group sometimes

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4. The coldest weather was once again Syktyvkar, where frost bite was a serious concern. As for heat, I’d have to say Australia. As a sun-intolerant Scot, I even needed a special hat. #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5. I’ve done a few Scottish long distance footpaths now. I love the feeling of walking into (relative) wilderness. #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie #pttravel A5: also, on my hike across the country last year, i had many nights in a tent, wild camping. That felt very ... miles from anywhere, at times; just me and the countryside.

@kate_frankie HAVE THE RIGHT CLOTHES FOR THE WEATHER!
I shout cos it will make or break your experience. Wrong clothes and you can be miserable. As someone who hates the cold I now do all I can to manage that with my clothing (or sneaking a hot water bottle in my bed 😂) #pttravel
