Ticking off the bucket list

Do you have a bucket list? When I was 20 I wrote out a 25 under 25 list. It was a fairly generic list. Did I do all those on the list? No. 25 came fast, really fast and most of those years were spent getting my degree. That list had a time limit, I am not about time limits. I Think your bucket list could be endless, I think I add to mine weekly.
Now as my list grows, it has WAY more variety. Well the bucket list is mostly travel related things. However, it is way more specific. What cities I want to see and what I want to do in them specifically. One day I would love to visit all seven continents and visit all the wonders of the world. Luckily I have a lifetime to tackle all of these. I try and tackle a few every year. As I said I just keep adding.
A few things I have ticked off my list so far
Swim with dolphins (managed this in the Pacific Ocean in New Zealand)
Machu Picchu
Go on a safari in Africa (I want to do this again and do a different area)
Run a half marathon (I think I am one and done, I cried at the finish line)
Skydive
Volunteer in a place of need
Get a degree
Go to Greece
Bungee jump
Hot holiday with friends
Girls camping trip
A few still on this list
Live in a different country
Camper van for more then one week
Live a penguins in the wild
Go on a hot air balloon
Wine tasting in Italy
Weekend getaway with my niece
My list goes on, and on, and on. It grows so quickly because when I travel I have a "must do" list for every place I go to. I make this so I know can prioritize my time while abroad. I have one saved in my computer and list written down in my journal. This year I was to tackle a few of these, but COVID had other plans. Which is okay I still managed to have a great time on the holidays I was booked for!
The best part of a bucket list is that you will always have those memories. A bucket list will look totally different person to person!! It is always that goal you have in the back of your mind of things you want to see, experience and/or have. I have always been a list person, something about crossing it off makes me feel accomplished.
Do you have a bucket list? What is all on it? I would love to hear, and am interested in suggestions!
