By then he had visited the 195 independent states in the world, and when South Sudan became independent in December 2010, he was of course quick to add country number 196!<\/p><div class=\"sharethis-buttons\"><div class=\"st-custom-button\" data-network=\"twitter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform-cdn.sharethis.com\/img\/twitter.svg\"><span class=\"label\">Tweet<\/span><\/div><div class=\"st-custom-button\" data-network=\"facebook\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform-cdn.sharethis.com\/img\/facebook.svg\"><span class=\"label\">Share<\/span><\/div><div class=\"st-custom-button\" data-network=\"linkedin\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform-cdn.sharethis.com\/img\/linkedin.svg\"><span class=\"label\">Share<\/span><\/div><div class=\"st-custom-button\" data-network=\"pinterest\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform-cdn.sharethis.com\/img\/pinterest.svg\"><span class=\"label\">Pin<\/span><\/div><div class=\"st-custom-button\" data-network=\"reddit\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform-cdn.sharethis.com\/img\/reddit.svg\"><span class=\"label\">Share<\/span><\/div><div class=\"st-custom-button\" data-network=\"digg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform-cdn.sharethis.com\/img\/digg.svg\"><span class=\"label\">Share<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, Peter Grip uses his travel experience to work with his own travel agency, Kon-Tiki Resor, which offers trips to exciting and interesting destinations.

Off we go in an official LandCruiser to the police station, where I was seated for four hours in a room surrounded by 7-8 people, the lights going off every now and then and the same questions all the time: \"What are you doing here?\" \"What is the purpose of your trip?\". <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They released me in the middle of the night, but the next day I was sitting in a caf\u00e9 when a white police car stopped. \"The chief wants to talk to you again\"... To the same police station, three hours of waiting before the chief came, then three hours of the same interrogation again. In the end they decided that my visa was wrong as it was stamped in my passport instead of a sticker. My objection that they should take it to their embassy in London did not go down well ...<\/p><div class=\"freed-placering-11 freed-entity-placement\" style=\"text-align: center;\"
