My Life List

I have been trying to put together a 'life list' (yet another great idea inspired by Erica :).  I was shocked how fast it went but also how it slowed down so fast!  The goal is to list 150 things that you want to do in your lifetime, essentially a bucket-list I suppose... It was a pretty fun process to go through and obviously I have a lot more to come up with, rother than forcing it and adding silly little things just to get to 150 I decided I will post this and gradually build on it as more ideas come to me :)


A list of a hundred and fifty things I want to do in my lifetime.
