Bucket List

I have been doing a little life coaching as of late - being coached that is, rather than doing the coaching. So far it has been an interesting process. One of my first 'homework' assignments was to watch the movie The Bucket List and then write my own bucket list. Hokey? Maybe a little. But it was actually quite a fun little exercise in putting pen to paper and formulating some ideas about what life may look like if it were entirely up to me. I thought it would be fun to share what's on my list. (Its kinda long, apparently I'm a bit ambitious):
