Lexie Afford, better known as Lexie Limitless on social media, shared the scariest place to travel in the world.
The 21-year-old received the Guinness World Record for being the youngest person to travel to all sovereign countries. At the age of 18, Lexie had already visited 70 countries, and today, she has visited all 195.
But what’s the scariest country to be in? In an interview with the website UNILAD, she said: “It’s really subjective, because it also depends on the moment. But for me, traveling in Yemen was definitely a very eye-opening experience.”
“They’ve been going through a civil war for many years. There was no other place I had seen that was so impacted by the war,” explained the YouTuber about the civil war in the country that began in 2014.
She also mentioned North Korea as a “complicated” country to travel to, since they are not very open to tourists, especially Americans. “I have a full YouTube video about this on my channel. But this time in particular, and still today, going to North Korea is illegal as an American.”
“I managed to go through the demilitarized zone of South Korea, but I needed three trips just to make this attempt,” added the influencer, who stars in Charge Around The Globe on Prime Video, where her goal is to become the first person to circumnavigate the world in an electric vehicle.
