Prepare yourself for an enlightening, humorous, and truly unique experience in the company of one of history\u2019s most traveled individuals.<\/p>\n

The audience will experience a wide range of emotions as Thor takes them through the highs and lows of the project in his attempt to visit every country on Earth entirely without flying. The talk touches on various topics such as inner strength, extreme determination, motivation, inspiration, humanity, geography, culture, misunderstandings, adventure, and every country on the globe.<\/p>\n

The adventure is also a story of perseverance, of the state of the world, of control and the lack thereof, and of how people, living under vastly different conditions and circumstances, are always just that: human beings.<\/p>\n

Thor has delivered lectures in 69 countries around the world, and an unforgettable talk can now also be booked for your company, organization, or school.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
