Carl Bushbey, a British man, returned home after a 28-year journey around the world, during which he covered about 50,000 km across four continents and 30 countries. Bushy left the Chilean city of Punta Arenas in November 1998 and set out to reach around the world without the use of transportation. During the journey he crossed the Purgatory, swimming over the Caspian Sea and the English Channel. The route was stopped repeatedly due to the financial crisis of 2008, the COID-19 pandemic and difficulties in obtaining visas. It took almost ten years to move the Russian part of the road. At the finish line, the passenger returned to his hometown in northern England, where he was welcomed by relatives, residents and media representatives.
