The World’s Saddest-Sounding Spots
Funny new Instagram account @SadTopographies offers daily Google Maps snapshots of “some where to go, when you’re feeling low.” The two-week-old account is the brainchild of Australian artist Damien Rudd, who came up with the idea after stumbling upon Mount Hopeless in Australia. Since then he’s uncovered Tragedy Pool, Despair Island, Unfortunate Cove and Cape Disappointment—to name a few. So if you’re feeling a little gloomier than usual, browse @SadTopographies for a spot to sulk, or for a funny reminder that people actually live in a town called Misery.
