Buzzfeed recently published a list of “19 Beautifully Isolated Places Where You Can Finally Get Some Peace And Quiet.”
The list includes locations from around the globe, and also two are from the U.S.: Baranof Island in Alaska, and Cape Neddick Lighthouse off the coast of York, Maine.
This is literally as quiet as quiet gets.
