Navštívit všechny země na světě se povede málokomu. Natož dvakrát. Čtyřiašedesátiletý Řek Babis Bizas ovšem tvrdí, že právě to je jeho případ, a je tak nejzcestovalejším člověkem na planetě. Se svým celoživotním koníčkem začal už v 19 letech a od té doby prakticky nepřestal, píše britský server Daily Mail.
Byl jsem ve všech zemích světa dvakrát, tvrdí cestovatelský rekordman
18. října 2018Řecký cestovatel Babis Bizas se na svou první cestu vydal v roce 1976 ve věku 22 let. Od té doby se v podstatě nezastavil a stihl navštívit všech 195 zemí světa, a to dokonce dvakrát. Teď o sobě prohlašuje, že je nejvíce cestujícím člověkem na Zemi.Babis Bizas na návštěvě Crozetových ostrovů v roce 2013 |
Když se poprvé postavil na kraj silnice a začal stopovat, byl ještě student. Na zádech měl malý batoh a v kapse pár drobných. „Poprvé jsem jel do zemí, které s Řeckem sousedí, tedy do Bulharska a Turecka,“ vzpomíná Bizas.
O rok později, stále na cestách, si uvědomil, že propásl zkouškové období. „Neměl jsem důvod vracet se zpátky na univerzitu, tak jsem místo toho odjel do Asie. Když mi docházely peníze, dostal jsem práci na řecké lodi, která momentálně kotvila v Kolombu na Srí Lance. A vydal jsem se do Afriky a Ameriky.“
V osmdesátých letech si uvědomil, že by měl získat práci, která by mu dovolovala v cestování pokračovat. Rozhodl se proto pro kariéru turistického průvodce a začal organizovat výlety pro menší skupinky lidí, ale v individuálních cestách stále pokračoval.
V roce 2004 si v seznamu všech navštívených zemí světa zaškrtl poslední položku – Východní Timor. Za 38 let tak navštívil všech 195 zemí (počet oficiálně uznávaných zemí se průběžně mění, pozn. red.). Otázka byla, co dělat dál. „Uvažoval jsem, že bych měl napsat knížku, nebo v cestování pokračovat. Samozřejmě jsem si zvolil druhou možnost, ale tentokrát jsem chtěl místa poznávat více dopodrobna,“ řekl Bizas serveru Daily Mail.
Šalomounovy ostrovy navštívil čtyřikrát. Vyhledával přírodní rezervace, zamiloval si Etiopii a fotografování etnika Himba v Namibii. Snažil se vybírat speciální místa, kde by se co nejvíce naučil o místních tradicích a kultuře.
„Podle mého názoru může někdo svědomitě říct, že opravdu poznal nějaké nové místo až v momentě, kdy o něm dokáže hodinu vyprávět,“ tvrdí Bizas.
Seznam všech zemí se mu údajně podařilo procestovat ještě jednou. Patří i mezi cestovatele, kteří navštívili jak severní, tak jižní pól.
Na výletech tráví Bizas 300 dnů v roce, občas se k němu připojí i manželka. I když evidentně netráví život bok po boku, jejich manželství už vydrželo neuvěřitelných 39 let. A v podobném duchu se bude jejich život odehrávat i několik dalších let. Už teď má Bizas naplánované cesty až do roku 2020.
Babis Bizas v Indonésii v roce 2004„Žene mě přirozená zvědavost a touha poznat ukryté části světa, do kterých je obtížný přístup,“ vysvětluje svou inspiraci Bizas. „Cestování v takové míře znamená, že musíte hodně věcí obětovat, vyžaduje to odhodlání a houževnatost. Znamená to, že své přátele moc často neuvidíte. Ale já budu cestovat, dokud neumřu.“
Představte si, že jste procestovali všechny země světa, přesto byste měli vybrat jednu, která vás nejvíc uchvátila. Bizas přiznává, že to pro něj není jednoduchá volba, ale nakonec jednu zemi přece jen zvolí. „Rusko. Je to nádherná země, líbí se mi místní kultura, jazyk, dokážu si lehce představit, že bych tam žil,“ přiznává.

Podle žebříčku Most Traveled People (kde mimochodem Bizas na předních příčkách vůbec nefiguruje) je rekordmanem Američan Donald M. Parrish Jr. Ve věku 73 let má v seznamu zapsáno 852 navštívených míst. V první padesátce jsou také dva Češi, Milan Šrejber na 29. místě a Vlado Pucik na 34. místě.
Guinessova kniha rekordů přestala podle informací serveru Daily Mail tuto kategorii sledovat v roce 2015, jako poslední rekordman zde byl zapsán právě Babis Bizas. Nejrychleji procestovala všechny oficiální země Američanka Cassandra De Pecolová. Psali jsme: Američanka cestuje po 196 zemích světa. Afrika je noční můrou, říká.

Ông Bizas bắt đầu hành trình du lịch khắp thế giới kể từ năm 1976, khi vẫn còn là một sinh viên. Tới nay, khi đã 64 tuổi, “sự tò mò trước thiên nhiên” vẫn thôi thúc ông tiếp tục những chuyến đi của mình. Bizas cho biết ông luôn mong ước được đặt chân tới những vùng đất còn ẩn giấu trên thế giới.
“Những nơi đầu tiên tôi đến là Bulgaria và Thổ Nhĩ Kỳ, 2 quốc gia ở gần Hy Lạp. Lúc đó, tôi chỉ có chiếc balo trên lưng và một ít tiền. Sau đó, tôi tới Afghanistan và Pakistan ở châu Á. Khi cần tiền, tôi làm việc trên một con tàu Hy Lạp ở cảng Colombo, Sri Lanka rồi đi tàu tới châu Phi và châu Mỹ”.
Thậm chí, ông Bizas quyết định chọn nghề hướng dẫn viên du lịch để giúp ông được thỏa đam mê đi khắp thế giới. Thời gian đầu, ông đảm nhiệm việc lên kế hoạch và tổ chức chuyến đi cho những nhóm nhỏ du khách.
Điểm đến đầu tiên trong sự nghiệp hướng dẫn viên du lịch của ông Bizas là Campuchia và Việt Nam. Tới năm 2004, ông Bizas đã tới thăm tất cả 195 quốc gia, với điểm đến cuối cùng là Đông Timor.
Hiện ông Bizas vẫn đi du lịch tới 300 ngày/năm. Ông cũng là một trong số ít người trên thế giới từng đặt chân tới cả Bắc Cực và Nam Cực.
“Khi tôi hoàn thành chuyến đi qua tất cả các quốc gia, tôi tự hỏi mình sẽ làm gì tiếp theo. Hoặc là tôi sẽ viết một cuốn sách, hoặc sẽ tiếp tục đi du lịch. Tôi chọn phương án thứ 2. Vậy là, tôi đến thăm quần đảo Solomon lần thứ 4. Tôi cũng tới thăm các khu bảo tồn tự nhiên. Tôi rất bất ngờ bởi vẻ đẹp của Ethiopia, tôi cũng thích chụp ảnh các bộ lạc ở Namibia. Tôi thường lựa chọn những điểm đến chưa từng có nhiều người đặt chân tới. Tôi cũng rất thích thú được tìm hiểu về văn hóa và truyền thống của người dân ở những nơi tôi đi qua”.
Vợ ông Bizas, bà Penelope đôi khi cũng đồng hành cùng ông trên những chuyến đi. Người lữ hành này đã lên kế hoạch cho những chuyến đi của mình tới năm 2020. Ông hiện đang ghé thăm Cape Verde trước khi tới Maroc và Mexico.
“Tôi thích rất nhiều quốc gia mình từng đi qua, do đó thật khó để chọn điểm đến tôi yêu thích nhất. Nếu phải lựa chọn, có lẽ đó sẽ là Nga – một đất nước rất đẹp. Tôi rất thích văn hóa, ngôn ngữ của họ. Để hoàn thành chặng đường qua nhiều nước đòi hỏi lòng quyết tâm và kiên trì. Đôi khi bạn sẽ không có nhiều thời gian để gặp bạn bè và người thân. Chắc chắn là tôi sẽ tiếp tục những chuyến đi cho tới khi còn có thể”, ông Bizas nói.
Năm 2015, ông Bizas đã được Tổ chức Kỷ lục Thế giới Guinness công nhận là người đi du lịch nhiều nhất thế giới. Tuy nhiên, tổ chức cho biết họ hiện không còn theo dõi kỷ lục này nữa.
Một số người khác trên thế giới cũng có sở thích đi du lịch qua nhiều quốc gia như ông Bizas. Ông Don Parrish người Mỹ đã đi qua 193 quốc gia thành viên Liên Hợp Quốc. Ông Mike Spencer Bown người Canada đã dành 23 năm đi du lịch thế giới và ghé thăm 195 quốc gia.

Odwiedził wszystkie kraje świata dwukrotnie. I wcale nie jest bogaty ani nie wydał wszystkich oszczędności
ap 26.10.2018 13:25
Grek Babis Bizas podróżuje po świecie od 1976 roku. Odwiedził dwukrotnie wszystkie kraje

Wielu z nas marzy o podróży dookoła świata. Odwiedzenie każdego kraju wydaje się wręcz nierealne. Ale pewnemu Grekowi się to udało. I to dwukrotnie.
64-letni Babis Bizas twierdzi, że nie tylko odwiedził każdy kraj globu, ale że zrobił to nawet dwukrotnie. Jak podaje “Daily Mail”, mężczyzna nazywa siebie “najczęściej podróżującym człowiekiem na świecie”.
Bizas zaczął podróżować w 1976 roku wieku 22 lat. Na pierwszy ogień poszły miejsca, do których z Grecji miał najbliżej – Turcja i Bułgaria. Jeździł tylko z plecakiem i przemieszczał się autostopem. Podróżował też bardzo oszczędnie, z niewielką ilością pieniędzy.
W tym czasie był studentem i gdy zorientował się, że już za późno na zdanie egzaminów, uznał, że nie chce wracać na uczelnię. Postanowił więc pojechać do Azji, a konkretnie do Afganistanu i Pakistanu.
Podróżowanie po świecie nie jest jednak tanie, ale Babis Bizas bez problemu sobie z tym poradził. Najpierw pełnił służbę na statku, który pływał pomiędzy Afryką, Ameryką Północną i Azją. Później Grek dostał pracę jako przewodnik, który organizuje wycieczki do rzadziej odwiedzanych miejsc. Dzięki temu może podróżować przez ponad 300 dni w roku.
W 2004 roku miał już na koncie odwiedziny we wszystkich krajach. Ostatnim z nich był Timor Wschodni. Zaczął się wówczas zastanawiać, co powinien robić dalej. – Myślałem sobie, że albo powinienem napisać książkę, albo podróżować dalej. Wybrałem oczywiście to drugie – opowiada w rozmowie z “Daily Mail”. Stwierdził, że dzięki temu będzie jeszcze lepiej mógł poznać kraje, do których przyjeżdża.
Turysto, uważaj! Są gesty, które mogą nawet zaprowadzić do więzienia
Poproszony przez “Daily Mail”, aby wskazał jedno miejsce, które najbardziej mu się spodobało odpowiedział, że nie jest to proste. – Ale gdybym miał wybrać jeden kraj, wybrałbym Rosję. To piękne miejsce, podoba mi się kultura i język. Myślę, że mógłbym tam zamieszkać – dodaje.
Bizas ma zaplanowane podróże aż do 2020 roku. Wygląda na to, że nie będzie się nudził. I że ma spore szanse, aby odwiedzić niektóre (a może wszystkie?) kraje trzykrotnie.

A görög Babis Bizas 64 éves. 1976-ban kezdett utazni hátizsákkal, és azóta sem állt le. Negyven éve a legfőbb célja, hogy a világ minél több szegletébe eljusson, oda is, ahova nagyon nehéz kívülről megérkezni.
22 évesen az első úti célja a Görögországgal szomszédos Bulgária és Törökország volt. Később idegenvezető lett, hogy az utazásból élhessen. A mai napig nagyjából évi 300 napot tölt utazással. 2004-ben járt az utolsó, 195. országban, Kelet-Timorban.

Mostanában már leginkább csak újra meglátogat bizonyos helyeket. Most készül negyedik alkalommal a Salamon-szigetekre, de természeti látványosságai miatt nagyon szereti Etiópiát és Namíbiát is. Az Északi-, valamint a Déli-sarkon is járt már. Ami igazán meglepő, hogy a kedvenc országának Oroszországot tartja.
Az antik mítoszok kedvelői különösen frappánsnak találhatják Bizas történetét, a görög utazó feleségének neve ugyanis Pénelopé.
The most traveled man on Earth
Babis Bizas has been rightfully dubbed the most-traveled person in the world, as he has visited all 195 countries numerous times in the past 40 years.
Babis Bizas has traveled since he was a student. He followed a group of young backpackers to India in his 20s.
He loved Afghanistan and was fascinated by Bangladesh. When his money was about to run he found a job on one of the numerous Greek ships anchored in the port of Colombo in Sri Lanka and sailed to Mozambique , South Africa and the United States.
Bizas is a fan of unusual destinations. Older travelers, who wanted someone to lead their tours to places where no tourist infrastructure was available, looked up to him.
In 20 years of traveling, either as tour leader or as an individual traveler, he had been all over the globe. Eventually he joined an expedition by Soviet helicopter to the North Pole; after a rough 19-hour round trip from the Siberian coast 18 years later, he put the flag in the South Pole too.
He traveled numerous times to Antarctica, visited remote Islands of the Aleutian Chain in Alaska, and explored rarely visited islands of the Pacific.

Babis Bizas, 64, from Arta, Greece, started backpacking as a student back in 1976 – and hasn’t stopped since.
He said what motivates him is ‘natural curiosity’ and the desire to see hidden parts of the world that are not easy to access.
Bizarrely, Babis’ wife is called Penelope and is from the island of Ithaca – sharing a name with Penelope, the wife of Odysseus from Greek mythology, who travelled for 20 years before returning to his beloved in Ithaca.
Babis said: “I started backpacking when I was a student, aged 22.
“I first went to Bulgaria and Turkey, the closest countries to Greece.
“I hitchhiked, I had only a backpack and a little bit of money.
“The next year I realised I had already missed my exams period and thought there was not much point going back to university – so I went to Asia instead, Afghanistan and Pakistan.
“When money got tight I got a job on a Greek ship anchored in the port of Colombo in Sri Lanka, and sailed to Africa and America.”
During the eighties, Babis realised he would need to follow a career that would allow him to travel as much as he liked.
So he got a job as a tour leader- he would plan and organise trips for small groups, not always to popular destinations.
The first trip to Cambodia and Vietnam was only the beginning as Babis kept traveling both independently and as part of his job.
By 2004 he had visited all 195 countries, with the last one last East Timor.
Babis still travels for around 300 days per year, and is also one of the few people on earth that have visited both North and South Pole.
He said: “When I finished all the countries I thought to myself ‘what do I do now? I should either write a book, or keep traveling’.
“Of course I chose the second one – but this time I wanted to visit places extensively.
“For example, I went to the Solomon Islands for a fourth time.
“I went to see nature reserves, I was fascinated by Ethiopia and I loved photographing the Himba in Namibia.
“I generally choose to visit places for special travellers like myself, as I like to learn about the culture and the traditions.
“In my opinion one can only say confidently that has fully seen a new place only if he would be able to give an hourly lecture about it.
According to the Greek mythology, Odysseus was traveling for 20 years before going back to his wife Penelope in Ithaca- ironically, Babis’s wife is also named Penelope and is from Ithaca.
But this Penelope has been married to Babis for 39 years and sometimes joins him to his trips.
Babis said because he has seen literally everything, it’s very hard for him to pick a favourite.
He has already planned all his travels until 2020 and is currently visiting Cape Verde before, later Morocco, Bissagos Islands in Guinea-Bissau, Mexico.
Babis added: “There are so many places I liked I can’t choose so easily.
“If I had to pick one I would say Russia – it’s a beautiful place, I like the culture, the language, I could easily see myself living there.
“Being able to travel so much means that there are also sacrifices to be made, it requires dedication and persistence.
“It also means that you would not be able to see your friends often.
“I will certainly travel till the day I die.”

A backpacker who has visited all 195 countries – twice – claims that he is ‘the most travelled person in the world’.

The 64-year-old says that the thing that motivates him is ‘natural curiosity’ and the desire to see hidden parts of the world that are not easy to access.

However, Mr Bizas is not the only person who has laid claim to the title of the world’s most travelled man.
Last year we revealed how American Don Parrish had completed the Travelers’ Century Club after visiting 325 countries or territories on its list.
Mr Bizas stands at the top of a waterfall on the world-famous Orinoco River in South America
His extreme travel habits took him to 852 places across the globe including all 193 UN member states.
Mr Parrish’s impressive travels also mirror that of Canadian Mike Spencer Bown, who spent 23 years travelling the globe and visiting 195 countries.
He was the first ever tourist in war-torn Mogadishu, he hitchhiked through Saddam Hussein’s home town during the U.S. invasion of Iraq and lived with pygmies in the Congo.
However, the question of who is officially the most travelled person in the world can’t be answered.
Guinness World Records declared it to be Mr Bizas in 2015, but told MailOnline Travel that it no longer monitors this title.
It did reveal a globetrotting speed record though – the fastest time to visit every sovereign country is one year and 193 days.
It was achieved by Cassandra De Pecol (USA) between July 24, 2015, and February 2, 2017.
Durante os anos oitenta, Bizas percebeu que precisava de um emprego que lhe permitisse viajar, e foi então que conseguiu emprego em turismo, onde era responsável por organizar viagens de pequenos grupos para vários destinos. A primeira viagem ao Camboja e ao Vietname foi apenas o começo. Ele continuou a viajar tanto a nível profissional como pessoal.
Em 2004, ele visitou todos os 195 países, sendo o último deles Timor Leste. Hoje, o Bazis ainda viaja cerca de 300 dias por ano, e é também uma das poucas pessoas que visitou o Pólo Norte e o Pólo Sul. Quando terminou de visitar a lista de 195 países, ele tinha uma certeza: queria fazer tudo de novo, mas desta vez, visitar os locais de forma mais extensiva. Atualmente, é escritor de viagens, explorador, operador turístico e entrou no Guinness Book of Records como “a pessoa mais viajada do mundo.”
Os passeios que Babis Bizas planeia e organiza são reservados com meses de antecedência e não há duas excursões iguais no mesmo país. Sempre que ele volta de uma viagem, algo diferente é adicionado à próxima.
Embora viva em Atenas, Bizas está longe da sua casa mais de 300 dias por ano, a explorar novas áreas do mundo. Os grupos de turistas de Babis consistem principalmente em gregos e viajantes vindos de países tão distantes como Austrália, Taiwan e EUA.
Agora tem 40 passaportes na gaveta, nunca deixa de lado o relógio de pulso com três fusos horários e está determinado a passar a maior parte dos seus dias em aviões para viajar o mais possível. As suas aventuras são partilhadas no seu site.
