I love seeing all those beautiful visas – really motivating. I wish you could comment on all visas as you did with your first two passports, because sometimes it’s hard to figure out where the visa is from.
Hi. Congrats to you and all your helpers.
You mentioned having 2 passports – are they both from the same country (UK)?
How many Visas were obtained by your family/friends in the UK while you were traveling?
$100 per week but does this include the cost of all those expensive African Visas? courier of passport?
Thanks.
I had 4 passports over the course of the journey, 2 running concurrently at any one time. Visas obtained in London = Guinea, Nigeria, Cameroon, Angola, Libya, Algeria, Saudi Arabia, India, China (for re-entry from Mongolia), Mozambique (second time – didn’t use the damn thing!!), Ethiopia (second time). The $100 a week included the cheaper visas… not the ones for Africa then!!
What an inspiration!
Congratulations on your amazing achievement, Graham!

Re: fibsy says: ” if u did´t fly why u got some stamps from some airports on your passport.”
The entry/exit stamps from airports are NOT from Graham’s recent record breaking journey.
hi graham, i´m from germany and i like what u did to go around the world.
just one question: if u did´t fly why u got some stamps from some airports on your passport.
It seems your passport stamp photos are down
There are a few hundreds of people that have traveled all the nations before Mr Kashi. May be he was the first to ask for the Guinness, but this just make him stupid. People know that he was not the first…
He wasn’t the first, he was the first to do it in a given time period… still, took him six years, so I’m doing alright!
Hi Graham, This is Yogesh from India. I really have NO words to explain how badly I want to go on travelling the world, all extreme points on Earth, witnessing everything all by myself, BUT seeing the money crunch & having an Indian passport, it seems it will take toooo much time…but I am not at all interested in such lifestyle…working everyday in a cabin in my office… This is just not for me… Just passed out from college… I am 22…. Please advise..How to go about it?
The guy who set the first world record visiting every country in the world (he did it flying) was Mr. Kashi Samadder: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CEcQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.worldrecordsacademy.org%2Ftravel%2Fmost_countries_visited-world_record_set_by_Kashi_Samaddar_90125.htm&ei=M8X5T7GiEYPZtAasw4WUBQ&usg=AFQjCNEfncrSD8X_Z4aKYVDUUqxrXC9Mzw&sig2=w5Di6V7FIV6OL7wZOvc07w a guy from INDIA!! Seriously, if you wanna do it, DO IT. Couchsurf, eat cheap and hitch whenever possible. Good luck my friend!!!
Hey Thanks a lot for replying
… Actually travelling is the only thing which pervades my mind every moment.. I have read about this guy..Kashi Samaddar.. That is the thing i do.. reading about such ppl to draw some inspiration.. Thats how i stumbled upon your this expedition… Looking forward to start my expedition asap.. I cant wait.. Why do i get this feeling that Indians are toooo homesick and less intrepid… Cant find one here… Well I would have loved to accompany you if you would have started now.. Anyways, Good Luck for your expedition 
How did you account for all the Visas that you need?
There’s 140 countries in the world that you can just turn up with a British passport and a smile and they’ll let you in. There’s 60 (including the likes of Libya, Somalia, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, North Korea and AUSTRALIA) that make it awkward for you. I don’t know why, maybe they just don’t like tourists so much…!
Australia made it awkward for you when you have a British passport? Isn’t that interesting
