Pope Leo XIV told reporters he would love to travel and that his top destinations are the Marian shrines of Fátima in Portugal and Guadalupe in Mexico. He also said he would “of course” like to return to Peru as well as visit Argentina and Uruguay.
The pope shared his hopes during an impromptu press conference as he left the papal residence at Castel Gandolfo on Tuesday evening, Nov. 18.
When asked when he would return to Peru and Latin America, the Holy Father explained that in 2025, “during the jubilee year, we’re going ahead living each day with activities, and next year we will gradually begin planning.”
“I love to travel,” Leo XIV shared, according to Vatican News. “The problem is scheduling it with all the commitments,” he added.
The Jubilee Year of Hope began on Dec. 24, 2024, and will conclude on Jan. 6, 2026, with the closing of the Holy Door.
The first — and so far only — confirmed trip of Pope Leo XIV is to Turkey and Lebanon, Nov. 27–Dec. 2 of this year.
