15 Countries By 25 Challenge
In 2018, I set the goal of visiting 15 countries by the time I turn 25 years old!
When I was 15, I had the opportunity to travel for my sport, and I also discovered my favourite YouTubers, KaraAndNate. Let's just say I caught the travel bug BIG TIME! It was then, in 2018, that I set this goal, or let's say challenge for myself!
It seemed to be going great, with me ticking off almost 2-3 countries per year, however then Covid19 decided to halt that progress. Since then I've been trying to play catch-up!
Currently, At 21 years old, I've checked 10 countries off that list and many many cities.
I was born, raised, and currently call Canada's Edmonton, Alberta my home. Canada is so big that I count it as a country I've visited as I have been to 4 of the provinces.
2 MAIN RULES: First, visiting the airport does not count, you must leave the airport grounds and explore for at least 4 hours in order for it to count. 2nd, flying over the country does not count, but taking a train or driving through it does.
