Today Marks 1 Year of Global Nomadism

Today marks one year of being a global nomad! I moved out of my apartment here in the nation’s capital Jan. 17, 2018, put my belongings in a storage unit, and set off to see more of the world. In this first year, I made it to seven new countries – Belarus, Cape Verde, Kiribati, Moldova, Nauru, Solomon Islands, and Ukraine – bringing my total to 127. I also visited one de-facto country, Transnistria (a breakaway state in eastern Moldova), bringing my de-facto count to three. Add the 15 inhabited territories I’ve previously been to, and 2018 brought my total number of distinct places to 145 – so I’m 62% of the way on my Quest for 234.
