The Road to “100”

I am currently 38 years old, and I have visited 86 countries. Before I turn 40 years old, my goal is to hit 100 countries. I turn 40 in June 2027… this is my Road to 100.

You can see the places I’ve already visited, and read about my experiences, on my interactive map here.

The road to 100 was never a tick-box exercise for me. If it was a matter of putting a toe over a border I would have hit 100 countries years ago. I travel because I love the adventure, and experiencing different places, cultures, and landscapes – it’s not just about a passport stamp. I started this journey in 2016 and it’s been 10 years in the making… I have found places that have taken me completely out of my comfort zone, and destinations that fuel my passion for food, train travel and history. The world is in a constant state of change, so I can’t say at this point exactly where the next year will take me – but I’m open to suggestions.

The upcoming trips I’ve already booked on my Road to 100 are below, along with links to my social media, where you can follow along and join me in my journey.
