The World’s Best-Traveled People

Bangkok is home to millions, and for one week, it was also home to 250 of the world’s best-traveled people.

The Extraordinary Travel Festival brings together adventurers who are passionate about seeing the whole world. In fact, the festival set a record this year for the largest single gathering of people who have seen every one of the world’s 193 countries.

These extreme travelers come from all walks of life. There are professors, nurses, accountants, diplomats, teachers, and even the world’s most unique mail carrier.
