Congratulations to Peter Cowley for achieving the incredible milestone of visiting all 50! And all the way from New Zealand!
Peter was planning to travel the USA as a tourist in 1998, when a friend suggested he look into truck driving as a way to see the country and earn good money too. He took his friend's advice and drove a Peterbilt Truck for two years from May 1998 to April 2000 and visited a majority of the US. He took a trip to the US in 2013 with a friend to visit the 6 continental states he didn't get to as a truck driver. He wrapped up his 50- state journey with visits to Hawaii and Alaska. What an amazing and resourceful way to see the USA!
1998-2000 42 states as a truck driver
2013 6 states by rental car with a friend, CT, RI, MA, NH, ME, and VT
2014 Hawaii
2025 Alaska
