Nigerian travel content creator Alma Asinobi, who recently finished an unprecedented trip spanning all seven continents using only her Nigerian passport, has marked this achievement by becoming the quickest person to visit every continent worldwide.

Following 71 hours, 26 minutes, and 25 seconds of continuous journeying, Asinobi arrived in Sydney on a Sunday after traversing the Nigerian flag from Antarctica through South America, North America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and finally reaching Australia.

In an Instagram post on Tuesday, she celebrated her accomplishment by writing, "The Nigerian flag has officially traveled to all 7 continents first and fastest! Guess I can call it quits now. Can’t wait to return homeee."
Her trip wasn't devoid of difficulties as Asinobi encountered problems with visas, experienced flight delays, and had to navigate various travel limitations because of her Nigerian passport.
Asinobi mentioned that she was not allowed to board her flight to Perth, Australia, which led her to reschedule for a later departure to Sydney. This change resulted in her delayed arrival.
Realizing the rest she required following the extensive tour, she mentioned that even during her sleep, the impact of her travels persisted. She explained that she would often wake up in distress after having dreams about a last call for departure.

Wow... Continent 8 (Dreamland) really worked out well for me. No visas required, no flights necessary, just a place to sleep. Honestly, any bed would've done the trick. All I needed were some rest for my puffed-up feet for a few hours, and let’s just say—mission accomplished.
"As I slept, I heard 'this is the final boarding call...' and jolted awake from my bed, only to discover it was merely a dream. This isn’t usual," she penned.
According to PUNCH Online, although Asinobi did not surpass the current Guinness World Record of 64 hours established by American veteran Johnny Cruz Buckingham, her achievement still holds significant historical importance. Her endeavor has ignited extensive conversations regarding passport inequalities and the obstacles limiting international movement for Nigerians.

She eagerly anticipates her homecoming celebration on March 30, with plans to set another record by having Nigerians gather to sign the flag she transported around the globe.
