    About the presentation

    This popular presentation will deal with Rufus McGaugh’s quest to visit every country in the world, which was completed on a dangerous trip to war-torn and terrorist-infested Libya in May 2017. Unlike previous lectures on this topic, Rufus will be sharing an extensive slide collection to illustrate his adventures – illustrating interesting, dangerous, and unusual destinations. Also shared: some of the more humorous and improbable incidents experienced while visiting foreign countries.
