James Asquith, Youngest to Visit all 196

September 17, 2018 by Dave2 Comments

An accomplishment certainly worth highlighting - world traveler, James Asquith remarkably completed visiting all 196 UN recognized countries by the time he was just 24. An even more remarkable was he started this epic and ultimate road trip when he was just 18.
