Your House Abroad

I'm amazed - the site www.YourHouseAbroad.com had a visitor last month from Bouvet Island, which is listed under Africa for some reason on my stats output. However, it turns out that the population of this Norwegian territory in the South Atlantic is ZERO, there are no internet domains registered to Bouvet Island (.bv) by decree of the Norwegian Government, and the place is covered in a great lump of glacier. So, either something amazing has happened, some cheeky geek has got round the system or (most probably) my stats program has had an off day and made a mistake.

Anyone else had a visitor from Bouvet Island?

For more details on the remotest island on earth see Bouvet Island in Wikipedia

Here's a great photo:

from a distance showing that the island has quite high mountains (max 780m).

Fine weather days are extremely rare apparently - not a great place for buying a house abroad even if you were allowed to (which of course you are not as it is a nature reserve).

Given the population is non-existent it is interesting to see lots of websites offering the best hotel deals, Bouvet island attractions, Bouvet island dining, meet the locals and get their advice on travel tips! Even better Bouvet Island timeshares, rental cars, Bouvet island payday loans, and even the Bouvet Island Medical Malpractice attorney!! For example see:
