I asked Mr. Watanabe Daisuke who played the world around 192 countries over 6 years and 3 months and asked various questions



The stretched beard and rough clothes that are easy to move will tell you that this person is not just a traveler. Even if asking for the route of the trip, "It is the second time in South America because we adjusted the itinerary in the Antarctic season, it is hard to understand. The encounter with Mr. Daisuke Watanabe who was aiming for the domination of all countries was a shock.

Hello, I plan to finish my trip by visiting 150 countriesTakuya Sudo @ circle around the world bicycle @ Charridermanis. I also dream that I would like to visit all the countries, but there are some difficult things, such as the limited place to take a visa and the need to spend over 100,000 yen on tour. That is why I respect respectful travelers all around the world.

It was Peru in September 2013 that I met Watanabe for the first time. I can not leave him saying "I'm going to go around all the countries" and exchange contacts. It is also worth it, I will meet again in India in May 2015. "In the meantime I was surprised, so I'm going around the towering place", and I was still doing amazing things. It was a Japanese inn in Kolkata, but everyone is curious about Mr. Daisuke's journey. That's right. I mind mysterious countries such as Chad, Eritrea, Central Africa, Nauru, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, and I was told many things.

Still a little less than enough, I managed to finish my journey.

Ji:
Do you have any difficult country to visit?

Daisuke:
"Struggling to visit" = "A country where visa is difficult".

Angola was the only way to get a transit visa from the South by taking a Democratic Democratic Visa in Zambia and getting a transit visa in Namibia's Oshkango. After that, although the Democratic Congo was able to enter the country, he was told that he was told that "Visa rules have changed so that you can return to Angola as the visa's rule changed" just before the capital Kinshasa. Just passing by Kinshasa to Brazzaville by boat it was forcibly escorted to the border, even though it would not be after 3 hours. Explain the reason and re-enter the country specifically in Angola. I am flying to Brazzaville taking the visa of Republic of Congo in the capital city Luanda.

As in Orienteering, Afghanistan moved while taking Uzbek → Kyrgyzstan → Tajik → Pamir with Visa and Permit, and obtained a visa in the Holocaust. I entered Afghanistan from the border of Thermes and Mazarri Sharif, taking over Uzbekistan visa for safety priority, rather than entering from Tajikistan's capital Dushanbe.

After that, Turkmenistan's visa can not be taken in Uzbekistan's Tashkent and retried in Iran 4 years later. Visiting Algeria, taking it in Tokyo was quite troublesome. Nauru, an island nation in the Pacific Ocean, also has difficulty adjusting the schedule due to anomalous flight of flights.

Ji:
There is also an island country, and I think that they use pretty airplanes if they become 192 countries ... ....

Daisuke:
If you include a transit you are on an airplane about 100 times. About 60% in the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean. I did not mind missing, but when I noticed the night before the fact that I mistyped the airport on the Dominican Republic's flight, when I repurchased again, I wasted thousands of yen.

Daisuke:

Ji:
Among the long journeys, was there something wrong?

Daisuke:
On average, it took a cold about once a year. Constipation and diarrhea are similar to Japan. I was bitten by mites and mosquitoes afterwards.

Ji:
It is healthy, is not it? I am doing malaria and being bitten by a dog, but ....

Daisuke:
Although I was bitten by dogs in American Samoa, the local people say "I have not vaccinated, but there is no rabies virus" and even if I looked it up on the net, some people were chewed but some people were fine I left it. I was fine.

Ji:
Did you not get involved in any dangerous eyes in a long journey?

Daisuke:
There was never a danger of life and the bus that was riding in Algeria caused a contact accident of the rearview mirror and spinning once, it was once in attendance by a driver of a three-wheeled taxi at a candy in Sri Lanka.

Ji:
Are there any failures in a long journey?

Daisuke:
Have you not been to Libya in peace? If I go to Baghdad in Iraq in 2002 other .... It will not be a big deal if all monetary failures are over.

Ji:
I am afraid to count the land that has been left out as a failure.

Daisuke:
English and Chinese are a bit. Spanish, French, Russian words around 50 to 60 words. Remember about 30 others and repeat it in the next country. When I'm in trouble, I will manage with gestures and pictures.

Ji:
Now that you have completed a long journey, please tell us your future prospects.

Daisuke:
In the future, I will work locally for several years for the time being. I do not know what will happen if I get married or children in the past few years (maybe I can not get out of retirement) but since my friend is doing a hostel in the Kanto area, I work half way and work half n byte nurse Uek. If you are a hostel there, it seems that you can take a break every two months a year, so I'd like to go out for a vacation then. I earn a lot of money locally → I'm planning my second trip after saving a little while traveling in Kanto. The place where I could not go, the overseas territory that I have not done (the rest of the island etc), the visit of a sunken place that was comfortable. Pilgrimage to Mecca, if the money is enough Arctic Pole is the planned place to visit. Although it is undecided afterwards, while doing nurse, refreshing the house of the deceased grandfather a littleAirbnbI guess I should try it. While working I travel a bit and I will aim at the South Pole and the universe (high altitude airliner) by the time I die.

A foreigner who had stayed up earlier said that if he won the lottery, he would like to travel around the world. In my case, I like to talk with a traveler with a traveler in a cheap hotel, I ride the same bus as a locals and eat the same things, I like the backpacker life, so if I win the lottery, I will take backpackers, If you can not experience without spending money sparingly. I will experience both upstream and downstream of the country. I will do such a luxurious trip.
