Nestled in the Italian Dolomites, Buffa di Perrero sits at 2,800 meters above sea level and is often referred to as “the loneliest house in the world”.
Although this isolated structure has been abandoned for a century, it still captures the imagination.
The origins of the Buffa di Perrero are mysterious. It is widely believed that during World War I, workers were sent to this remote location to build some sort of shelter.
Legend has it that Italian soldiers built this hidden refuge to escape harsh weather conditions and seek shelter during battles with the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Constructed of brick walls and a sloping roof, the building features four windows and camping chairs, stimulating curiosity about how the materials were transported to such a remote location. Steel ladders and ropes were used to negotiate the treacherous terrain and access the structure.
During World War I, similar “bivouacs” were constructed along the Italian front as temporary rest areas and strategic observation points amid the intense mountain warfare.
Since then, the weather damage has taken its toll. The hut reportedly became “unusable” for climbers after the roof collapsed. Nevertheless, adventurers can take a look into this mysterious house via steel ladders, rungs and ropes.
The interior, with its wooden decor, evokes the attempts of both soldiers and modern explorers to relax in this remote refuge.
Inspired by the Buffa di Perrero, the Auronzo Club Alpino Italiano (CAI) built a modern refuge near the Forcella Marmarole pass.
For those seeking an adventurous trip, a challenging five-hour hike leads to this modern hideaway reminiscent of the Buffa di Perrero. Like many iconic landmarks, the Buffa di Perrero has given rise to numerous imitations.
My husband chose his mistress over me and our kids, so I taught him a lesson
Exposing your personal life on the social media for the sake of sharing a life lesson might be a difficult decision to make, but TikTok user @tattylomas did exactly that and spoke of how she handled her husband’s infidelity and how she reacted witnessing him ruining their marriage and their family and later regretting it.
She started her story explaining that she and her now ex-husband were high-school sweethearts. She knew he was the one the moment she laid eyes on him years ago. The two proceeded to marry and welcome three children together. But one day out of the blue he told her that there was someone else in his life and that he wanted a divorce.
The TikToker felt like her entire world collapsed. She couldn’t understand how he could wrack their family for a woman he only knew for three months. But he was determined to start his life over claiming he was in love with her and deserved to be happy.
She did all in her power to prevent him from leaving her and the children, but to no avail.
It was then that she decided to put her brave face on and be strong for her kids.
They proceeded with the divorce and she got to keep the house which meant the world to her because they bought it from her grandmother, but ended paying him a hefty payout.
Once everything was over, the TikToker could finally get over her heartbreak. But then, she got a text from her ex telling her he was sorry and he wanted to get back to her. For this woman, that wasn’t an option. After everything he did, she couldn’t possibly take him back, not ever.
In fact, she learned that the woman her husband left her for was a horrible person who crashed his car while driving drunk.
Some time later, the TikToker met someone knew through her sister who was also divorced. She and this new man didn’t plan on getting married, but they got involved in a meaningful relationship.
The woman continued to express how delighted she was to watch her ex-husband suffer the consequences of his actions. “Call me evil or whatever, but he brought all of this on himself,” she added.
At the end of the video, she addressed her husband directly, saying, “So if you are watching this, enjoy your shabby one-bedroom apartment and her broken-down car. Oh, and my new partner and I will think of you on our vacation in Hawaii. I know Hawaii was the place you always wanted to go. Maybe I will send you a postcard.”
“SERVES HIM RIGHT!!!” someone commented. “YES GURL U GOOOO,”another added.
One viewer suggested, “GIRL SEND HIM THAT POSTCARD BUT FILL IT W PICS OF YOU AND YOUR NEW MAN.”
She said she didn’t want to indulge in any hard revenge antics because watching her ex regret his actions was enough revenge for her.
