From Central Otago to Central Europe: The Kiwi tot dubbed 'the world's most well-travelled baby'

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Otago News

When Atlas Montgomery grows up he is going to have plenty of reading material about his first few months on this planet.

The infant has been dubbed in UK and US media “the world's most travelled baby” having chalked up 23 countries before he has even turned 11 months old.

Atlas’ first trip took place when he was just six weeks old, as mum Becs Lewis and dad Will Montgomery flew him from their Queenstown home to Singapore to begin their year-long worldwide travels. Since then the trio have been campervanning across Europe, clocking up the kilometres and the countries.
