Buford is located in Laramie County, Wyoming, USA, off Interstate 80, about 40 kilometers south of the state capital, Cheyenne. The town is famous for having the smallest resident population in the United States - in 2010, there was only one person left (and then it became uninhabited for a time), and was certified by the Guinness Book of World Records as the "least populated incorporated town in the United States". Dating back to the 1860s, the town prospered as a railroad supply depot and then declined as transportation routes changed. Today, the town's landmarks include a grocery store, gas station, and a historic beacon that was sold to a Vietnamese businessman for $900,000 in 2013, making it a "lonely landmark" for tourists. Despite having zero permanent residents, the town attracts thousands of visitors each year to experience the wilderness and serenity of the vast state of Wyoming.
Same, the capital of Timor-Leste's Ainaro District, is located about 50 kilometers south of the capital, Dili, in the mountainous interior and is an important agricultural and transportation hub for the country. It is known for its coffee farming, surrounded by terraced fields that produce Timor-Leste's premium Arabica coffee beans. Historically, Samu was an important stronghold during Timor-Leste's War of Independence, and remnants of the resistance movement still remain in the area, attracting history buffs to explore. The surrounding area is rich in natural beauty and close to Mount Ramelau, Timor-Leste's highest peak, making it a stopover for hiking enthusiasts. A blend of traditional Timacu culture and modern townscape, Samu offers a unique look at the interior of Timor-Leste.
