An amazing 40-year-old Norwegian traveler Gunnar Garfors managed to put this record without interruption from work for a full day. The Norwegian started traveling at the age of 17, and he really liked it!

Since then, Gunnar met a knife-wielding man in Somalia, hell of food poisoning in India and was deported by the police from Niger!

"In 17 years, my friend and I visited 13 European countries, and I caught the bug. A few years later I started traveling to countries outside the Western world, and then decided that I should visit all the States of the world. In 2004, I wanted to visit all the countries whose names end in "Stan", and in 2008 already precisely decided that will see the whole world," says Gunnar.

While Norwegian traveler heads the international media company — and on the road working on his laptop.

"Leave the bubble that we exist in the West, to see how people in other parts of the world live and perceive our world, to realize that many of them don't even know how we live (or at all do not suspect about our existence), it was a liberating experience that leads to humility. These people consider themselves the center of the universe just as many in the West. I realized that ultimately we are all the same".
