1. The continents look entirely different than you think they do.
The map you're used to is more Western-focused and stretches out the size of continents near the poles. Africa and South America are actually way bigger. Here's a more accurate representation of the world, according to the The Gall-Peters Projection map, created in 1885.

You aren't that special! There are over 7 billion people on the planet right now. Each and every one of them should be treated with respect.
3. There arecastlesand evenlighthousesthat areless expensive than NYC apartments.
WithNew York City rentrising over an average $3,000 a month even in Brooklyn this year, it's becoming more and more appealing to perhaps move somewhere else. If you're one of the lucky ones who has a bit of money to burn, might as well spend it on a real-life castle or lighthouse, right?
