Do you get remote?

I was just playing with Google Earth and realized how much of the planet would be considered remote. I mean, if you want to get remote, you can. But then, what is remote? There are towns in the middle of China that I guess I would consider remote and they have a 100 thousand people living there. How can that be remote. Is remote relative to whoever is trying to get away? The Mariana trench is remote, I know that.
Where have you been that you would consider is the most remote? With this group we should have the globe covered.
For a city I guess mine would be a little Inuit village by the name of Teller which is about 75 miles North of Nome, AK. I spent 5 weeks in Nome on a project and got out quite a bit. Lots of remoteness out in the tundra.
I used to go out to Isle Royale which is remote for inside the lower 48 standards and we would bring a canoe. This gave you access to areas that felt very remote. I've gone 5 days without seeing another human there.
North Pole? Astronaut? Deep sea diver? Everest base camp
