My Travel Bucket List
From a young age , I have been exposed to the wonders of travel. Nothing makes me feel more alive and more motivated to work hard.
I am lucky enough to have traveled as much as I have , but there is still so much to see. Here are 20 of the places that I have dreamt about going to:
1. Angkor Wat, Siem Reap, Cambodia. Seeing the sunrise while seeing the beautiful temple is definitely something that I want to see in my lifetime.
2. Experience the hustle and bustle of New York City. I can remember myself as a young girl dreaming about walking the streets of New York City, going to Central Park and calling for a yellow cab.
3. The Eiffel Tower, Paris. Okay but seriously who doesn't wan to go to Paris and see the Eiffel Tower?
4. Route 66, the USA. It starts in Illinois and ends in California or vice versa. I think it would be the ultimate roadtrip and I would really get an authentic American experience.
5. The Northern Lights, Iceland. This is so unpredictable so you will never really know whether you will experience such an exquisite moment. Between September and April is probably the best time to go to Iceland, however there are no guarentees.
6. Climb Machu Picchu. This is definitely something that I want to do in my lifetime. I also think that it would be such a cultural experience to live the Inca way of life for a few weeks.
7. Witness the wildebeest migration at the Serengeti. I am sure that this will be one of the most breathtaking experiences. Which part of the Serengeti you should be in is all dependent on the time of year that you are there.
8. Taj Mahal , Agra, India. I have heard so many stories from people who have seen the Taj Mahal and they all say how seeing it was such a life changing moment for them.
9. The Great Wall of China. This is something that I dream of doing with my Mom because it has always been something that she wants to do. One day Mom ...
10. Kyoto, Japan. Kyoto is well known for its beautiful gardens and the Buddhist way of life. Definitely a place that I want to experience.
11. Dubrovnik, Croatia. About 6 years ago a friend of mine traveled to Dubrovnik and the photographs that she showed me were exquisite and since then I have wanted to go.
12. Tegenungan waterfalls, Bali. I am completely obsessed with waterfalls so this is a serious dream of mine. And I get to tick this one off my list in December.
13. Climb Mount Kilimanjaro. This is probably the most unrealistic thing on the list, but hey a girl can dream. Anyone know of a good personal trainer??
14. Santorini, Greece. The unfiltered beauty of Greece has always been something that I've wanted to experience as well as the food and I've also heard that the people are lovely.
15. The Great Barrier Reef, Australia. This is the worlds largest coral reef. Diving here would definitely be an experience of a lifetime.
16. Rome, Italy. I remember as a young girl being so obsessed with Italian food and my dream was to one day go to Rome. Now the food isn't the only thing that excites me ( but it is definitely a factor). One of my biggest dreams is to one day visit the Vatican City.
17. Ski in the Swiss Alps. I'm sure after the many falls that I'm bound to have this will be an experience that is life changing and helps builds confidence in myself. Of course being in winter wonderland would make it all worth while.
18. Road to Hana, Hawaii. This is something I definitely want to do so I can see all the stunning waterfalls on the way ( I told you that I'm obsessed).
19. Go on a Buddhist Retreat in Asia. I'm not exactly sure where exactly yet, but this is something that I definitely want to do over the next year. Basically eat more cleanly, give up social media and just spend time with myself.
20. Go to Langkawi, Malaysia. Something that I definitely want to do is walk along the 125m skybridge and see Langkawi in all of it's glory. And of course see the beautiful beaches.
