Karl Bushby arrived home in Hull, England on Monday after walking around the world for 28 years. He left his mother Angela's house in 1998 and covered about 31,000 miles on foot. In the final part of his journey, he pushed a small two-wheeled cart. When he returned, he saw his mother for the first time in ten years. He also planned to meet his son Adam, who he had seen only a few times during the long trip. He was expected to meet his 12-year-old granddaughter for the first time. The journey began after his father Keith, a former soldier, told him about a debate over whether someone could walk from London to New York using the Bering land bridge.
