War, storms, disasters, polarised politics and loony leaders… need a break?

If you are looking for a trip away from it all, the best advice is to head for places with mega-low populations. You have more chance of finding solitude and peace away from the great metropolises of the Far East, Europe and America and of course the globe’s more far-flung destinations offer the great de-stresser – nature in all its wild and grandstanding glory.

The chances of getting caught up in, or even hearing about, negative news stories shrinks rapidly when in relatively under-populated destinations. The list below offers travellers a chance to move closer to Mother Nature, which continues to be the picture-perfect antidote to aggressive politics, religious conflict and war.
Keeping away from the fault lines and planning a trip out of the most adverse weather seasons is also advisable. So get your diaries, maps and peace mats out.
