30 Things to do Before I'm 30
I’m only two years away from the big 30 and I’m absolutely terrified. How did this happen? My 21st birthday only feels like yesterday. Age scares me more than anything else in the world. Seizing every moment is how I’ve lived the beginning of my adult life and I’m not going to stop now. I’ve had so many incredible experiences in my twenties - I’ve worked on a cruise ship in Asia, climbed Mount Kilimanjaro, moved to Dubai, road-tripped across the USA and backpacked around Italy. My main achievements are all travel-related which is what I’m most proud of, however as I’m approaching 30, there are other life goals on my horizon.
As you may have seen, my bucket list is ginormous - over 200 adventures to be completed all over the world! However, there are a few that I’m desperate to achieve before I’m 30. It’s THE milestone where everything changes. Most people, by age 30 they would like to be married, have children and be settled down. This is a dream of mine for the future but for right now, I don’t see myself in that position for at least another 10 years.
I’ve put together a list of my top 30 things I’d like to achieve in the next 2-3 years. Yes, the majority of the list is still travel related hehe, but planning adventures and having a trip to look forward to, is how I want to keep living my life.
