Bucket List

Building my own bucket list was one of the best things I ever did. It gave me the inspiration to search out more and more of the amazing things this world has to offer.

The more research I do, the more countries I need to visit and the more things I add to the list. I doubt I will ever complete it, but I’m going to have a lot of fun trying.

I am always interested to hear new suggestions, so let me know about anything you think I must see or do.
