Date:

Giving up the ordinary life and go traveling around the world is rear. But our planet is just so big that we’re left wondering whether it’s really possible to visit every single country out there.

 Well, one life-loving young woman, Cassie DePecol from Connecticut, has proven that it’s possible. We at NewsMobile are delighted to be able to share her inspirational story with you.

Cassie’s journey began in July 2015, when she was 25 years old. She’s now 27, and in the space of just 15 months she’s managed to visit 180 countries, traveling 254 times on a plane. But that’s not all. Cassie dreams of becoming the first woman in history to visit all 196 countries of the world. She’s aiming to complete her unprecedented mission in 45 days.

Cassie says that she always wanted to see the world even when she was still in school, and the “crazy dream” developed to visit every country on the map and find out as much as possible about the traditions, history, culture, and religion of the people who lived there. Cassie found little solace in staying in the place she was born and passionately wanted new adventures and experiences.

Of course, this course of action required a lot of money. Overall, Cassie’s globetrotting trip has cost her $198,000, a large amount of which has come from numerous sponsors. With their help, this enterprising young woman made a documentary film about her unique journey. In addition, you can see the luxurious hotels of those who invested in her on her Instagram page. In return for advertising their businesses, she received accommodation.

In Cassie’s words, attracting investors was no easy task as she had to search for funding when she was already traveling.
