This is really cute, love it
Hope to see more crossed out along the way
AWESOME!!! Can you really swim with whales in the wild??

Holy crap…you’ve gotten a whole lot farther on your list than I have! I’d be happy to help with #27 though!
What a great bucket list, good luck with conquering it!
Wow, you have a bucket list like me, and you are in Brazil like me! You are doing really well on your list. You should check out my blog!

I love your bucket list!
For climbing an active volcano, I highly recommend Mt Yasur in Vanuatu (South Pacific)… you can sit on the rim of the crater as it spews out lava! It is so close that it seems like it’s going to land on you, but doesn’t. Prolly one of the coolest things I’ve ever done!
I mentioned it on twitter, but you might want to check out our website for help planning #1, 17, 29 (Ecuador, Chile & Mt. Meru), 41 and most of 59. The climbing expert here at Adventures Within Reach mentioned that we generally discourage people from climbing ACTIVE volcanoes, but our 4 Peaks trip in Ecuador does include technically non-dormant ones

OMG…love your bucket list!!! So excited that you’ve done so many already. Keep up the good work!!!
well that is one damn impressive list
I love how “learn how to drive stick shift” is on there twice! It’s really not that hard. just gotta learn first gear and you’re good to go!
I need to make a bucket list of my own! I have to say that I’m jealous you’ve finished so much of yours! You will be my motivation!
Much Love,
Alexis
This one is good, and the amount completed in unbelievable!
What an awesome list.
Love your bucket list – inspired to write my own now!
ooo… we have so many things in common on our lists. I haven’t published mine but I’m thinking on doing so in the near future.
Like you, I have always wanted to just show up at the airport and randomly pick the next flight… lol
Would love to see how you read Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s novel without a dictionary. My first language is spanish and I still need to look up for some complex words he uses.
Love it! And I’m totally jealous that you swam with whales!! Although, I’ve surfed with dolphins in the wild and that was pretty amazing!!

Love the bucket list! Some are similar to mine…. never thought of number #32… might add it now though! haha
Great list, Andi! I must admit, outer space sounds a bit scary to me, but a hot air ballon ride would be awesome.
YEEEEESSSSS! You completed your #58!!! Rough time of it you must have had
Haha, so awesome. And so many of these are along the lines of the bucket list I have in my head…
Andi, we share some items on our lists. For us though, we only created a 30 before 30 list. I know we’ll all cross all items on our list! Happy Travels!

Good luck girly!
Hey, i’ve just come across your site – very cool and impressive bucket list.
Earlier this year I spent a couple of months crossing the Atlantic in a rowing boat and got close to some pretty big whales. It was so tempting to have a swim with them but at the same time extremely daunting as they were so big in relation to the boat so I didn’t go for it. Next time…
WHAT A B.L.!!!!!!!
Thats one big list!!!
Love the list, I’ve done 10 of yours, I have quite a few of them on my list too, next up…Carnival in Rio
Now THAT is a list, wow!!!!!!!!!
Awesome list!!!
Awesome! I will definitely be coming to you when I plan my trip to Cuba. It’s something I’ve wanted to do forever! Love your bucket list. I recently was able to cross a few things off of mine!

Just wanted to say that I adore your bucket list, and the few things that weren’t on mine I have quickly added
#12 is a rough one though.. haha i’ve been trying to get through cien anos de soledad for about a year now
Just finally caught up on your wedding posts and I’m in awe. Stunning and beautiful love story. Congrats and big hugs to you. Now…one more thing to cross off on your bucket list…# 60!
