My Travel Bucket List
I had always thought about making a bucket list, but I was always one of those things where I thought I would get around to it one day, or that well, I’m crossing things off my mental bucket list all the time anyway so I never really thought too much about actually writing one!
That changed the day when one of my friends pulled out her very battered looking travel bucket list. We had been at the Holi festival in Jaipur the day before, so here she was, pulling out her list to cross it off.
So of course I wanted to have a little sticky beak and see what was on it. And tbh it was a pretty awesome list and so inspired me to actually write down my mental bucket list I had kicking around up there for years. It is in no particular order except what came out of my head at the time, but I am of course always adding to it because, well I always find some other amazing thing to do!
If you want to copy my list you can download the PDF at the bottom- which is a lot prettier and has been put into order by continent!
