I was thinking, "If I had to choose ONE thing I want to do before I die, what would it be?" I looked back at my bucket list and as much as I want to do all of those things, none of them were things I would be devastated if I died without doing.
Before I die: I want to go on an adventure.
I mean a legit adventure, not one of those, "Oh I'm going to go explore London," adventures. They speak English - it doesn't count. I want to be dropped in the middle of a culture I know nothing about in a place where I have no idea where I am and experience everything there is to experience. That's the kind of adventure I want. Now, it may involve riding on the back of an elephant or going to the Holi Festival or any of the other things on my bucket list... but honestly the whole fun is not knowing what's going to happen and going with the flow. It's hard for me not to plan things (ask my roommate... or Sam... or my mom...) so that's part of the experience for me.
Of course, I wouldn't mind having a buddy to adventure with :) I'm hoping that at least one of my adventures involve Sam tagging along (also, never a bad idea to have someone with medical training along!) and I want to take a trip to Africa with my mom because I know that's something she's always wanted to do. That one might have to be planned out though, because I don't think either of us are spontaneous enough to just wing it. I think we would both have anxiety attacks haha.
Anyways, that's my "Before I die I want to..." I know you probably won't, but if you're feeling extra share-y today (or whenever you read this), post yours in the comments section. If not, that's cool, but really think about what yours would be for yourself.
