sounds like an amazing trip. I’d adore to determine much more photos. My next vacation is in six month so i can just read and dream of travelling through the globe …
You have red the article in national geographic August, too, correct? The writer had some pictures from his travels through the world and wrote very comparable about his trip. Oh man, and I have to stay the following 4 month in my dull hometown until i can travel once more.
Great list of quality ideas. If I can help you achieve any of these things, or join in on the action, do let me know. We have a few items to check off in common for sure. I might even steal a few of your good ones that I hadn’t written down:) Rock on!
This is definitely a work in progress!
Holy WOW!!!! I love this nick. Didn’t know that u’d become a professional traveler. How awesome!!!! I always thought those guys that host the travel shows on the travel channel have the most fullfilling careers ever. I’ve got Antarctica on my bucketlist too. It’ll be funny if we end up on the same “cruise” ship lol. Keep it up!!!!!! Here’s a thought to consider for ur bucketlist; Great Barrier Reef 😉
Thanks Blair! I added the Great Barrier Reef as I just got my diving certification. Hopefully I can be on the Travel Channel some day!!
Wow you air glided the swiss alps without me. Talk to my parents, I will accompany you in your trip to the world cup
Sounds like a great bucket list and you’ve already crossed quite a few items off!
It’s always a work in progress!
A very interesting bucket list of which I have complete some of them and a few others I would be interested in. Keep travelling!
Thanks Lynn!
Great list! I love how some of these are completely exotic, like “dive the Red Sea in Egypt,” and then others are so basic, like “do an insanity workout.” hahah. And to think you’ve crossed off more of the crazy ones!!!
You are on your way! Eiffel Tower anytime! Just a train ride away. I have never been either and I go to Paris all the time!
I’m looking forward to following your progress. I have no doubt that you will accomplish your goals, i.e. bucket list.
Hooray for bucket lists!
