Have you ever tried working 16 hours in a day – for several consecutive days – just to have enough vacation time to go on a trip? 🤯 Well, Romaine Welds has been doing that for years now, all to accomplish his goal of seeing every country in the world (195) – which he completed earlier this year!

He’s the first Jamaican, Caribbean, and black American (take your pick! 😅) to see every country in the world – and one of only two black men in the world.

He doesn’t call his trips “vacations,” as he’s exhausted when he starts them and he’s on-the-go the entire time to see as much as possible. However, his trips (and pictures) have resulted in incredible memories and experiences. Find out how he makes his schedule work and how he doesn’t die from exhaustion! 😅

Other unique things you’ll hear in the Romaine Welds interview:

• The only country in the world he experienced racism – which might surprise you… or will it?
• The country where a child bit him, because the child had never seen a black man and thought he was made of chocolate 😂🍫
• His favorite country (yes, he actually has one, unlike most other world travelers!)
• The country where he thought he was going to die after the car detected a bomb
• Why his worst travel experience happened in Ecuador
• Tips on cutting costs to be able to travel more
• His thoughts on the San Francisco Bay Area, where the host 😉 believes is the best “region” in the world, and also where Romaine lives
