  • Karl Bushby, a former British paratrooper, is nearing the end of his 28-year global walk on Monday. The 57-year-old explorer has traveled 31,000 miles across four continents since beginning his trek in 1998.
  • Bushby began his 31,000-mile journey at the tip of South America with strict rules: no transport forward, walking every mile home on foot. He successfully entered 30 foreign countries spanning South America, North America, Asia and Europe.
  • Throughout his odyssey, Bushby navigated the Bering Strait, swam the Caspian Sea, and crossed the English Channel. He faced shifting ice, crocodile-infested waters, and geopolitical obstacles that tested his resolve across nearly three decades.
  • Kindness from strangers sustained Bushby through grueling environments over nearly three decades. As he approaches the finish line, he reflects on the personal significance of his journey and whether he is truly ready for it to end.
  • The expedition concludes this Monday in Hull, England, where Bushby will finally return home after nearly three decades on foot. This unprecedented circumnavigation represents an achievement spanning almost half his life.
