A mindful traveller, perpetual wanderer, part time meditator and newbie blogger

TheBucket

It’s a prerequisite for any traveller to have a bucketlist, a list of things to see and do before you die. However, this is just one perspective. I personally have a number of things I want to do, see and achieve before I miss the opportunity. The ultimate miss, of course being death.

Have goals, have activities, have fears and keep them in the forefront of your mind. Remember, “Do the thing you fear most and the death of fear is certain”.

In no particular order of activities and places, this is what I have thrown into my bucket.
