Travel Diary

Probably my biggest goal in life (sounds cheesy but idc), is to travel a hell of a lot. I love going to weird and wonderful new places and learning the perks of different cultures. I feel like when i'm old and grey I know that i'll have lived my life to the full if i've seen as much of the world as possible.
My all time favourite poster on my wall is my scratch map. They're around £15 on Amazon and you essentially scratch off a country as you would a scratch card once you have been there. If you're a massive fan of travel like me, you'd love one. I get way too excited to come home from a holiday just so I can scratch a country off!
My aim is to be able to scratch a place off a year, however this may be a tad difficult so I may go for 1 every 2 years. We'll see how my bank account stretches.
So far the places that have been scratched off are;

Mallorca, Jamaica, Finland, France, Menorca, Spain, Belgium, Mexico and Italy. I'm not planning on Antarctica - that would be a bitch to scratch off!
I'm incredible lucky to have been to the places that I have already, but to me it just isn't enough! There are still so many things I want to do and places I want to visit!


I want to cuddle a tiger cub in India, go on a safari in South Africa, visit many many locations in the USA like Florida (Disneyworld), New York, Miami and LA, see Christ the Redeemer in Rio in Brazil, bit of a depressing one but I want to visit Auschwitz in Poland, walk on the Great Wall of China, I need to see Hobbiton in New Zealand, go skiing in Switzerland or Canada, visit Mexico again and see the Chichen Itza, go to the pyramids in Egypt, sunbathing on the gorgeous beaches of Greece, see the Taj Mahal in India and also visit Portugal, Amsterdam, Ireland and Thailand. I could literally go on for hours with all the places I want to visit.
If travelling were free I wouldn't be in England right now. Fingers crossed I win the lottery!𝕒𝕟𝕟𝕒𝕓𝕖𝕝

10 Things in 10 Years.

I know it's probably the most hated cliche in the entire world, but we do only live once. I'm determined to make my time on this planet worthwhile. To help me along with this, i've devised a list of objectives i'd like to complete by the time i'm 30. As I turn 21 in August, I really only have just over 9 years.
  1. Visit the 7 wonders of the Modern World: Taj Mahal, India - The Great Pyramid, Egypt - Colusseum, Rome - Chichen Itza, Mexico - Great Wall of China, China - Christ The Redeemer, Brazil - Machu Picchu, Peru - Petra, Jordan.
  2. Get a dog: I've wanted one my entire life but my mum hates them.
  3. Watch all of the Harry Potter films in one day: I never said I had a life.
  4. Confront a fear or two: Skydive/hold a spider/shark cage etc.
  5. Get fit: Something I have been trying to do for the past 10 years.
  6. Read more: It sounds a bit boring, but reading is supposed to make you more intelligent. I've already made a pretty good start on this one.
  7. Go out more with friends: I'm getting far too lazy in my old age.
  8. Be more adventurous and spontaneous: I need to stop making excuses to not do things.
  9. Have my own space: I'm ridiculously excited to have my own apartment or house and make it my own.
  10. Order a drink in Starbucks with a ridiculous name: This is something i've always wanted to do, but never had the balls to do it..
If i've even attempted half of these in 10 years, i'll be pretty damn happy.
