As an avid traveler, foody and all round day-dreamer, I often find myself sitting at my desk, or on the bus to work formulating and reprioritising my Bucket List. I have been fortunate enough to tick off a lot of items on my list over the years. This brings a sense of fulfillment and joy to my life and encourages me to believe in myself and live out my dreams. As I tick off each item on my list (in no particular order), I’ll write a post to share with you my experiences, thoughts and photos.

Hi Louie – great idea for a blog to share your bucket list! If you need tickets for the Toronto Blue Jays game, just let me know when you’re in town & I can arrange for you (though it would be better if they started winning again – lol)! Cheers.

Hi Dharma. Thanks for the follow! And more importantly, thanks for the offer to organise Jays tickets!! That is very kind of you. I am looking forward to Opening Day and hopefully a better season than the last few…or more. Keep up the great writing, I really enjoy reading your thoughts and views on the world.

Your bucket list is much like mine. More uncrossed than crossed off. And, I keep adding things but don’t cross a whole lot off. We do lots, just not “crossable” things, necessarily.
