Cameron Mofid visited every country by the time he turned 25.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Last month, a friend invited him to join a trip to Antarctica, the continent he had yet to visit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
The trip showed him that despite visiting all 195 countries, so much of the world remains to be discovered.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
In April 2025, I finished a seven-year journey to all 195 countries in the world<\/a>.<\/p>\n That trip carried me to some of the most remote places on the planet. Yet after thousands of hours on flights and more visa applications than I can count, one major destination was still missing: the elusive seventh continent, Antarctica<\/a>.<\/p>\n Antarctica hadn’t factored into my goal of visiting every country because, technically, it isn’t a country.<\/p>\n It was also financially out of reach. Even the most basic trips to the continent often start around $10,000 per person, not including flights.<\/p>\n But when one of my closest friends, a well-known YouTuber, told me he wanted to go, I arranged a collaboration with an expedition company for his channel. This allowed me to tag along.<\/p>\n
