Far, Far Away (Gift Article)

"Two years and several visits later, Kelly made the decision that would change her life: She moved to Tristan and became the first woman in over a century to settle there for good. The last had been three Irish sisters, in 1908." Population 270+ people.

Reading “Far, Far Away / Making a home on the world’s most remote inhabited island.”. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/w... (subs probably required). OK, maybe I don’t need to go to the most remote populated place in the world. But I find it fascinating to read about.
