What's on your bucket list?

I'm making a '101 things to do in 1001 days' list. What's on your life list?

Re: What's on your bucket list?

  • More traveling! Would like to see Italy, Greece, New Zealand, Thailand just to name a few. Would love to live in Hawaii (Kauai to be specific) for a few years (or forever.) Also, I have a concert bucket list: Foo Fighters, another RHCP show, another DMB weekend at the Gorge and that list goes on. And finally I'd like to get my yoga teacher training done in India. And live at an ashram. So there's that. Hippie much?

    Hmm...good question. I think top on the list would be to travel. I know it's pretty far fetched now with a LO on teachers salaries but a girl can dream! I'd also like to live in NYC at least for a while but I'm kind of scared to actually pick up and move like that.

    Edit: typing is hard
  • Driving cross country. I want to see the Grand Canyon and the Florida Keys! DH and I often talk about renting an RV someday and driving the kids across the country. We need to do it when they are old enough to have fun and appreciate the things we see but not too old and bored or annoyed by it.

    Having a real vegetable garden, which is tough because we live in a townhouse and I kill plants just by looking at them. :-(

    Also living in a foreign country even if just for a few months. This one could actually happen - someday we may spend a year or eventually retire in the country where DH was born.

    Taking a vacation by myself. Just a weekend at a small spa/resort or in a small town. I used to travel alone for work and enjoyed it. Now I would really miss DH and the kids but there is something very liberating about traveling alone. I like making my own agenda and going at my own pace. I almost never make friends when I travel alone. I like just being by myself!

    Or you could take your teaching practice on the road!  If you are a native speaker of English (and had the desire to teach overseas and had a partner who was onboard as well) you can often land a teaching gig Elsewhere pretty easily.

    My list is always changing.  I use 43things to keep track of it, and to enjoy the support of a community full of other folks cheering one another on as we reach our goals.

    My SIL is actually out visiting 9 countries in 3 weeks. I'm so jealous, her photos are gorgeous!!! She was just in Venice, Italy.. They got to ride a gondola, looked magical & so romantic. Definitely wouldn't mind adding that to my bucket list.
  • I checked off my number 1 travel item already which was Bora Bora.  My other 2 are a South African Safari and to to the Maldives.  Non travel related would be skydiving and to run a marathon. 
  • My travel dream trip would be a cruise through the Panama Canal. I want to have the fancy suite with a balcony so I can watch the locks.

  • I want to be the guest DJ on the Ellen show. 
    Become C-level in my career.  
    Watch a live taping of SNL - I email them in August every year to be in the ticket lottery. I've obviously never won. 

    There's some travel stuff too, but those are my top. The DJ thing just came about when I was on leave and realized Ellen's the coolest person ever. I say guest DJ and not just attend the show, and I'm aware that's unlikely. A girl can dream.
