My Bucket List

This list originated at Day Zero Project, but I soon moved it here once this blog was started. It features a list of things I want to do and places I want to see, both in the short-term and throughout my life. This list will be constantly being added to and improved upon. If you have a suggestion, please send me a message via the contact page.
