Anon wants to go to Nuuk

These kinds of places can look idyllic until it’s 5:30pm on a Friday and the only place to get a drink closed half an hour and the streets are all empty. Then they start to feel pretty boring.

Suicide rates in Greenland are among the highest on the planet. It may seem idyllic but it's apparently crushingly lonely and oppressive.

Not with that attitude Anon won't.

looks pretty cozy alright

Nuuk is fairly remote, but it's literally the capital and I've heard it's developing nicely.

Imagine moving much farther north to Illorsuit, it was literally abandoned a few years ago.

no war

Greenland is a super strategic place in the Northern Atlantic "theatre"

I live in a small town in Northern England, I also have no war.

I'm sure Greenland has politics though, because you know, it's a country.

I'm sure they'd love to have random immigrants who moved there just because it looked nice on online photos

Idk about greenland but in faroe and iceland a surprising amount of people are moving in because its a very calm place. The birth rate is also good(at least on iceland, idk about faroe) so the population is actually growing pretty steadily.

you can't just go to these places they will rip off your nuts

Remote can exist practically anywhere.

My in-laws retired and moved to France, in the rural south. It is eerily quiet because no traffic goes near their house, and they are 30 mins drive from anything like civilization. They do have a small restaurant (that loves putting froe grais on everything), a hairdressers, a travelling doctor, and (weirdly) a bowling alley that doubles up as the local bar and a place to buy stuff - all for less than a hundred people.

You can get really remote in the UK too. Some parts of England are 30 mins from anything like civilization. Some parts of Scotland are only accessible once a day by boat, and if you go really up north you find wooded areas where people die because you're surrounded by miles of nondescript woodland.

Googling it, there's an e-reader, New Nook, Nook'n go, Tom Nook in animal crossing, a milk farm in Peterborough... but yeah, the city exists.

Interestingly, Nuuk is actually Inuit for ”New York”.

Conan arrives in Nuuk

I've always had an obsession with maps, which as an adult has brought me to wanting to visit the "extremes" of the world. Far north, far south points of things. But I'm not the adventurous type so a lot of those places are just never going to happen. Nuuk has always been high on my list of places that would be neat, while not being impossible to get to comfortably.
