There's nothing magical about getting to travel to the countries in this trip (I'm not the world's biggest traveller, and I've visited all of the ones in the longest trip he lists except 2 - and those two would be trivial to add too). Paranoid much? It's not for the average Joe Tourist, but tons of people do such big trips (including friends). And I know people who did it in way more dangerous itineraries. Think Africa or Latin America. Actually, a friend finished Canada all the way down to Tierra del Fuego Argentina 2 years ago on bike, and I'd be much more worried for some of the Central and Latin American countries he passed, than e.g. the train trip from Portugal across Europe to Singapore via China. Aside from the currently in effect sanctions against Russia, those are all trivial. I don't even know what "There's zero people in this world that don't have to avoid certain countries" is supposed to mean. Why would they have to avoid certain countries (aside from not having the guts, or following some state "advisory")? Are they wanted or something?
