Over thousands of years, people have settled in a lot of remote places. From the high peaks of the Andes to the scorching Sahara Desert and the isolated islands in the Pacific Ocean, humans have found ways to adapt to so many corners of the Earth that don't even seem to be meant for us. And many consider Yakutsk part of this list.
The city is located 450 km (280 mi) south of the Arctic Circle and has a population of 355K despite the fact that the average annual temperature is −8.0 °C (or 18 °F). Reddit user Yavl is also a resident, and they recently held an "Ask Me Anything" on the platform, sharing their take on the region.
