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.

Ngāi Tahu and the Department of Conservation released 18 takahē on the Ngāi Tahu tribal property Greenstone Station on Wednesday.
It was overseen by Ngāi Tahu rangatira Tā Tipene O’Regan who first saw the birds during an expedition with Dr Geoffrey Orbell in 1949, one year after they were rediscovered, having previously thought to be extinct.
“I have been enraptured by takahē since I was a boy, so it is very satisfying to release our taonga on our own whenua as we move towards a shared goal of seeing takahē throughout the Ngāi Tahu Takiwā,” he said.
