Very few people attempt to walk around the entire world, and even fewer actually manage to complete the journey.
On May 21, 2022 Tom Turcich, from New Jersey, became the 10th person on record to achieve this remarkable feat, while his four-legged companion Savannah was the first dog to do so.
The pair were greeted with a huge homecoming celebration attended by many of Turcich’s friends and family, along with well wishers.
The triumphant moment brought about the end of a seven-year, 48,000-kilometer (29,826-mile) journey that he’d spent even longer working toward.
“It was very surreal,” Turcich tells CNN Travel from his parent’s home in Haddon Township.
“I had imagined what the ending would be like for a long time.
And when it happened, there were people lining the streets and walking with me.
“The primary emotion was just relief.” (CNN)
Anything is possible. Don’t give up on your dreams!
