Posted on February 16, 2016 by Lesley | 28 Comments

There are so many unbelievable adventures in California that I needed a California adventure bucket list. I’ve already crossed off a number of the items but by creating the list I will gain the encouragement to complete them all. Many of the adventures sound like something in a futuristic movie like flying a jetpack, becoming a fighter pilot for the…

2016 Bucket List

Posted on January 8, 2016 by Lesley | 20 Comments

After a wild 2015 of trekking gorillas and chimpanzees, searching for polar bears, taking selfies with penguins, swimming with whale sharks, and diving with great white sharks, I didn’t know what to focus on for my 2016 bucket list. I want to continue exploring the world and experiencing new countries and cultures, but I want to spent more time with…

Posted on November 11, 2013 by Lesley | 6 Comments

I was a high school English teacher. For eight years, that’s how I defined myself; for the rest of my life before that, I was a student. I was content in life. I was content with my career. I was content with my location. I was content with my extra-curricular activities. I was content in my marriage. I was content. I…

The Day I Saw A Shuttle Launch

Posted on October 21, 2013 by Jaspa | 2 Comments

I went to see the new movie Gravity this weekend (which looked stunning, by the way). It got me thinking about what is undoubtedly my biggest bucket list accomplishment to date: witnessing the launch of a Space Shuttle with my own two eyes. From the moment I first learned of the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, I knew I had…

His Holiness The Dalai Lama

Posted on October 18, 2013 by Steven Moore | 0 Comments

Anybody that knows anything about me will know that I’m not a very spiritual person, or at least in the traditional sense of the word. I’m a strong willed atheist, I don’t believe in horoscopes and the zodiac, Feng Shui is another name for good taste and even yoga hurts just to watch. The extent of my spirituality is of…

Niagara Falls has to be one of the most popular bucket list destinations in all the world. There are lost tribes living in the Amazon, with absolutely no links to the outside world, that have Niagara Falls on their Bucket List. I count myself very lucky to live these days within two hours of these iconic waterfalls, and never tire…

Living in Istanbul

Posted on September 29, 2013 by Carlota Martins | 1 Comments

Living in Istanbul has proven to be a big change in my life. Not only am I now living between two continents – enjoying the perks of Asia while retaining the commodities of Europe, – but especially I am now adjusting to a city of millions of people. An overcrowded, huge exciting city instead of the peaceful calm town where…

Prior to 2011, I had not been up a mountain, at least not in living memory. But since moving to Switzerland I’ve been captivated by the Alps, Europe’s greatest mountain range. I could try one of the 10 best mountain rides in Switzerland or make the trek on foot. Having an insatiable hunger to experience its great peaks on foot, I…

The open road, an endless playlist, salty snacks and a few friends–what more do you need for a road trip across America? With my V.W. packed and ready to go, George (aka Dad), Tallie (the terrier) and I hopped in the car in Santa Cruz, California. Our itinerary? Cross the southwestern United States in five days, and end in Asheville,…
