I was going through my stuff last night when I came across
the list "of the things I want to do before I die” that I created 10 years
ago. At that time, the movie Bucket List has not been made yet. Had I made the
list after I saw the movie, I would have named it my bucket list, and it would
have been shorter and easier to say. ha!
Looking at it again puts a smile on my face. Although I don’t
have to look at the list because I know it by heart, it was heart warming to
read it again. Some of them I was
able to cross out but I still have a long way to go.
With all the items in my list, I sure hope I live a long healthy life.
How about you lovelies? Do you have a bucket list?
Here’s a few of what’s in mine.
I want to see the Aurora Borealis. They say every 11 years, it reaches its Solar Maximum, its peak moment, and 2012-2013 just happens to be one of those peak years. Between October-March are the best months to go and of course, you have to travel in the Arctic Region to do this. We’re talking Northern Alaska, Northern Canada, Iceland, Scandinavia, etc… in winter! But I reckon it’s worth the trip. I’m sure it will be such a humbling and grateful experience just to see this miracle of nature in action.

If you have the northern lights, you have
the southern lights too. Aurora Australis. And since I live in Australia, I
guess this is easier for me to see.
I also had in there a long list of places I want to see.
I want to see Prague in the Czech Republic. A
European friend of mine told me that it is one of the most beautiful cities in
Europe in terms of architecture.

Paris, France. Aren’t
most of us do!?

Barcelona, Spain. I am just in awe of the Basilica de la Sagrada Familia. And now, since my husband is a chef, we want to do a food safari of Spain too.

Tuscany. I just love, love, love Tuscany’s country side. Do
you know that buying a house in Tuscany is one of the items in my list?

Venice. Need I say more?

Milan. The architecture, the fashion, everything!

Amsterdam. I just want to experience the vibe of this city.
The Swiss Alps. I want to go skiing, snowboarding, and eat lots and lots of cheese.

Brazil. I want to experience the Carnival, see the Iguazu Falls and go to Ipanema Beach.

Machu Picchu in Peru. Preparation is needed if you want to visit the place because your body needs to acclimatize first due to the high altitude. Isn't it just lovely!?

Santorini in Greece. I wish all seaside towns can ba as beautiful as this.

Maldives. A piece of paradise in a small island.

Pyramids of Giza in Egypt. Although its not safe to go there now.

There you go lovelies. Some of the items in my list. Quite tough to cross out everything but remember, life is short, be a dreamer.
Have a great week lovelies!
xoxo,
Coco
