Charles Veley explains why having a travel checklist can be beneficial and how the MTP app helps.

Charles Veley is often referred to as one of the world's most traveled people, but whether he is definitively the most traveled depends on the criteria used. 

I've met Charles Veley four times, and for the fourth time, we recorded our conversation! 

In 2005, Charles Veley founded the Most Traveled People (MTP) community. MTP divides the world into 1,500 areas. As of May 2025, Charles Veley has been to 1,322 of them! That's why he's been called the Godfather of Systematic Travel!

Download the MTP app or create a profile on MTP's website.

Charles Veley achieved notable milestones, such as becoming the youngest person to visit all 320 countries and provinces recognized by the Travelers' Century Club (TCC).

He has traveled millions of miles and taken over thousands of flights.
