When my parents bought me a globe for my 10th birthday present, I instantly became obsessed with geography and learning about the World.

I remember spinning the globe every night before bed, and memorizing the names of every country and capital.

My admiration for travel became deeper after studying abroad in Prague in 2012, where I traveled to 20+ countries in Europe that semester.

When I left Prague, I knew I wanted to make a career out of travel -- and I made a goal to myself to visit every country on earth. Here we are, 6 years after Prague, and I have visited 126 countries.

That leaves just 67 left to finish my dream, which I am projecting to complete by mid-2020!

The fun is just about to start, and I hope you're as ready as I am for the ride :)
