Meet Lexie Alford, a 21-year-old American woman who has achieved quite a feat by becoming the youngest person on Earth to travel to all countries in the world. On June 2, Lexi uploaded a photo on her Instagram account with a caption that read "officially traveled to every country in the world". The photo shows Alford holding a piece of paper that has "North Korea May 31, 2019, country #196" written on it, indicating that North Korea was the last milestone on her tremendous journey and a finishing step in the world record. Her website, lexielimitless, proudly displays the number of countries she has traveled, 196, in contrast to the tab with the remaining countries where the number has finally dropped down to zero.
"It sounds crazy but more people have traveled to space than every country in the world," Alford told Bored Panda. "There's an estimate 150 or so people who've done it and less than 10 of those people have been women," she explained. And now she's one of them! The young woman explained that despite being pressured to continue studies after finishing community college when she was 18, Lexie decided to go against everyone's wishes and pursue what she saw as her own personal passion.
The adventurer has documented her numerous travels across the world not only on her blog but also captured the moments in stunning photos which she uploaded on her Instagram. At the moment, her page has 67.3k followers and around 400 posts with multiple images.
