Meet ‘world’s most well-travelled baby’ Francesca, aged 1, ahead of her 24th destination next week

A ONE-YEAR-OLD could be the world’s most well-travelled baby, as she heads for her 24th destination next week.

Francesca Drabble, off to Cyprus on her first birthday next Monday, has seen more countries than many adults will visit in a lifetime.

Her list includes the Dominican Republic, her first flight at just seven weeks old.

She was pictured in the plane cockpit in a vintage pilot’s outfit.

She has also been to Turkey, Croatia, Dublin, Milan, Ibiza and Amsterdam.

Francesca, crawled for the first time in Romania, and her first solid food was fresh octopus in Greece.

Mum Lauren Blake, 33, of Manchester, said: “She has to eat what we eat as I want her to try all the different foods.”

Lauren, an advanced clinical practitioner, has been squeezing in the travel during her maternity leave.

Her partner Benjamin Drabble, 32, joins them when he can get time off his work as a heating and plumbing engineer

Lauren said: “It’s a lifetime of memories and I’ll never get this time back.

“People say she won’t remember, but I will.”

Last year we told how New Zealander Atlas Montgomery had been to 23 countries within 11 months of his birth.
