Major props to this guy. What an amazing accomplishment. Badass in my opinion.

British man becomes first person to visit all 201 countries... WITHOUT using a plane

• Graham Hughes, 33, used buses, taxis, trains and his own two feet to travel 160,000 miles in exactly 1,426 days - all on a shoestring of just $100 a week
• Yesterday he trudged into Juba, the capital of South Sudan, to end the epic journey that began in his hometown of Liverpool on New Year's Day 2009
• Spent four days 'in a leaky boat' to reach Cape Verde, was jailed for a week in Congo, and was 'saved from Muslim fundamentalists by a Filipino ladyboy'
• His lowest point was when his sister, Nicole, died of cancer two years ago
• He says: 'I think I wanted to show that the world is not some big, scary place, but in fact is full of people who want to help you'

british people are kinda obssessed with taking buses n walking on foot imho, maybe it feels awkward to drive along the left side of the street i don't know

This story should be made into a movie. How the do you go to every country in the world without using a plane? That takes patience and will if you ask me. , I've never even set foot outside of North America. Must be nice to explore so many different cultures and types of people.
