bucket list

I thought I’d write a (probably eventually very hefty) list of all the things I dream of doing and achieving in my life, just to give me that little bit of motivation to go for it and tick that bad boy off! I’ll always be updating this when I get inspired to add something else.

{For my travel page, including my checklist of the places I’ve explored and yet to explore, head here!}

My Bucket List:

• Get the HSC marks I need to get into the course I want at uni
