Welcome to my ginormous bucket list, which was started in 2006. It is a never-ending work in progress, continuously being altered, updated, contemplated and rejuvenated—much like myself.

Before you even ask: Yes. I know the bucket list is huge. Yes. I do think that I can complete everything on it.

Anything is possible in my mind.

It is my hope that you use these bucket list ideas and examples as inspiration to create your own cool and adventurous bucket list. And then you take at least one step everyday to complete the items on it. This bucket list has completely changed my life (for the better, of course!) and I wish the same for you.
