Fulfilling her lifelong dream to travel across the world, Filipino-American Luisa Yu proved that age cannot defy a person\u2019s dream to explore countries and achieve their life goals.<\/p>\n

At 79, Yu was referred to by travel enthusiasts as “mama,\u201d as she was considered the oldest person in the group as they continuously explored different places in the world.<\/p>\n

Yu was born in the Philippines but migrated to St. Louis as an exchange student. She was then relocated to Miami as she started to explore different cities in the United States.<\/p>\n

Not limiting herself to exploring just cities around the States, she made her first mark on her travel journey in 1970 as she explored the beauty of Japan. This was then followed by other countries as she achieved her 193th mark last month. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s one of my dreams that I want to travel to every country in the world,\u201d Yu said in an interview with an international media company.<\/p>\n

Besides visiting these countries, Yu became remarkable to the natives and people during her travel as she joyfully participated in the activities in each place with respect to their culture and tradition.<\/p>\n
