Pitcairn Islands is one of the most remote inhabited places on Earth, located in the South Pacific Ocean, over 3,000 miles (4,800 km) from the nearest continental landmass. With a population of fewer than 50 people, it is the least populated national jurisdiction in the world. The island's rugged terrain consists of steep cliffs and dense vegetation, with no airstrip or harbor, making access possible only by boat. The climate is tropical, with heavy rains and frequent storms shaping daily life. Economic activity is minimal, primarily centered around subsistence farming, fishing, and the sale of collectible stamps and honey. The island’s isolation and lack of modern infrastructure present challenges, including limited medical care and supply shortages. Descendants of the HMS Bounty mutineers and their Tahitian companions make up the island's population, preserving a unique cultural and historical legacy.

Live there - probably not, visit - most certainly. I've always been enamored with remote islands ever since I watched a Globetrekkers episode about St Helena where Napoleon was exiled.

Looks like land is free once you live there 6 months.

Put in a garden and grow your own chickens and your set! Let's go!

Oh and make your own vodka, would need to figure that part out!!

If the women look like the women in the Mel Gibson/Anthony Hopkins movie then count me in.
