paaseiland
Does the Easter Bunny hide his eggs on this island? Not as far as we know. Easter Island actually owes its name to a Dutchman who accidentally spotted the island one Easter Monday.

With gigantic figures that have gazed at the sky since the Middle Ages and a nearly extinct population: it looks like something out of a sci-fi book by Hank Green.
