British Adventurer Karl Bushby Returns Home After 28-Year Journey

British adventurer Karl Bushby returns to his mother's home in Hull after completing a 28-year, 50,000-kilometre journey from Chile.

British adventurer Karl Bushby arrived at his mother's home in Hull on Monday, November 2, concluding a remarkable 28-year trek spanning 50,000 kilometres.

The 57-year-old former paratrooper set out from Punta Arenas, Chile, in November 1998, aiming to reach his mother's doorstep without using any conventional forms of transport.

After completing the final leg in northeast England, Bushby reunited with his mother, Angela, and rejoined a family from whom he had been separated for nearly three decades.

He also met his 36-year-old son, Adam, as well as his 12-year-old granddaughter for the first time.
