“I am proud to be the first American president to come to Kenya, and of course I’m the first Kenyan American to be president of the United States,” said President Obama on his recent trip to Nairobi, where he participated in the Global Entrepreneurship Summit. This historic presidential visit was cause for celebration for many Kenyans.
Official White House photographer Pete Souza also had reason to celebrate. With his most recent trip, which also included stops in Ethiopia, Obama visited his 50th (and 51st) country as president. Souza, reflecting on his journeys alongside the president, created a photo gallery with a snapshot of each country. Scroll down to see some of his selections and view the rest on the White House blog.
President Obama has already visited all 50 U.S. states.
