Alexis Alford, commonly known as Lexie Limitless is the youngest person to travel to every country in the world, being only 21 years old when she achieved this world record. Lexie is now 22 and has a YouTube channel, in which she talks about her experience whilst traveling, for example, how she traveled to every country only speaking English, another one on how to travel alone, and has so much more content.
Her most popular video, with a little bit over the million views, is called "How I Became the Youngest to Travel to Every Country at 21", in which she explains just that. The video starts with old footage of her traveling through Egypt, Cambodia, Thailand, and all around the world, stating that she's been in love with traveling from a very small age.
Her video, being a very explicative one is a great example of what someone can achieve if they follow their dreams, even if they seem a little bit crazy or difficult to reach. Alexis explains how she made the money to travel throughout the world, also stating that her mother was a travel agent, allowing her family to travel to many countries since she was very young.
At the age of 12, Alexis knew that she wanted to live fully, and here is where she started working at her father's constructor to gain some money. Later, at 15, she became a travel agent, learning how to schedule her time wisely and getting important discounts in the traveling business.
Lexie had already been to 70 countries, and after saving money for so many years, her new experience was about to begin. I believe this is one of the best videos concerning traveling out there. In it, she also stated that the places most people told her to be aware of, had the kindest people and communities.
