My Bucket List

I’VE been doing a lot of thinking lately about life in general and all the incredible things this world has to offer. If I’m being completely honest, which I am, it absolutely blew my mind.

In an attempt to structure my thoughts, I have decided to collate my ambitions and create a ‘bucket list’ which I have shared with you guys below. There are so many things that I want to do, I’m not sure if I will ever get chance to complete this list but here’s to trying to tick off as many of them as possible!

If you have done anything on this list then I would be eager to hear all about your experiences! Please share with me in the comment section or get in touch via the contact page.

In no particular order…

  1. Very cool list. I noticed on Your list this:

    11. Visit Lapland.

    I can say that thank You, because I live in Finland and we love Lapland. In winter, it is Winter Wonderland.

    I show to You some examples:

    Reindeer race.

    This race is open for everyone without any charge. It is unique in the world!

    World’s Biggest Snow Castle.

    Think – world’s biggest!

    Arctic Circle in winter.

    This is Winter Wonderland where You can meet Santa even in summer.

    Happy and safe travels!

      1. SnowCastle in February to mid-March.

        Arctic Circle January -March.

        Reindeer race on the first Saturday after mid-February.

        All these places are quite near and easy to reach by train and busses.

        Welcome next winter, especially to participate in Reindeer race. I could shoot photos from Your drive.

        If hiking among free roaming reindeers, then best time is late August to mid-September.
