replying to @RTWBarefoot @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.

A5 #pttravel Driving from Brisbane to Melbourne I found myself in the middle of nowhere several times & one night didn’t have a reservation & wasn’t sure where to find a place. I almost slept in the car that night.

replying to @dipyourtoesin @dipyourtoesin New York in March for us was bitter some days! Street turn into wind tunnels. So cold #PTTravel

replying to @5to9traveller @5to9traveller @kate_frankie yup yup.

The only time I've ever had heat exhaustion was in Cambodia when I decided to hike between a few of the temples of Angkor. It was maybe only about 33-35ĀŗC but ... those distances are long! #pttravel

A5 #pttravel Probably the Breakaway Hills, which we saw on a day trip from Coober Pedy (which is, itself, pretty remote) A lot of it is sacred ground to the First Nations people, but our guide was one' Told us where we could & couldn't go & told some great stories.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5. In a bus in southern Morocco when a rainstorm caused a flash flood. Roads washed out. Delayed for hours. I had no cell phone to call my hotel to warn them of my delay. So we passengers just went outside and chatted. Oddly enough, it was a little exhilarating. #pttravel

replying to @kate_frankie @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.

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 @aok_NW @aok_NW Yes, Australian outback is pretty remote feeling. Tough to drive from one city to the other because there aren't as many places to stop off #PTTravel
