Hi!
My name is Luca Pferdmenges and I am the German Travel Guy. I have travelled to over 190 countries at age 23 and I am still on my mission to visit every country on the planet (5 countries left). I am also trying to become the youngest man to ever travel to every country in the world. I am one of the most followed travel influencers with over 3 million followers across Instagram and TikTok. My mission is to connect the world, travel to off the beaten path destinations, remote countries and less visisted places. I want to show the culture, hospitality and hidden gems of lesser visited and dangerous countries.
See you somewhere around the world,
Luca
