Today around the world, over 3.9 billion people live in cities. And, according to the United Nations, this should increase to 6.4 billion by 2050. However, many people prefer to live in small villages, often isolated, and whose charm is incomparable to the biggest cities on the planet. CreativeSpotting invites you to discover these lovely villages scattered around the world as urban life does not suit to everyone. We can see through these pictures the ingenuity of these small colonies that manage to create beautiful places to live in. Fom Island Mykines, with only 13 permanent inhabitants, to the floating islands of Uros in Peru, these isolated villages are worth a look.
