The End is Near: 2014 Bucket List Recap

How on earth is 2014 already coming to an END! It is December and I feel like (as usual) this year has flown by. Looking back though, I must say, I have loved every second of it! Adventures and traveling each year helps to keep me SANE! So let’s just take a quick look back before I start up on my new bucket list for 2015. I will most likely reminisce on these adventures of 2014 separately in posts in the future so look for that… in case you were curious as to how or why I ended up doing most of these activities! I can’t wait for 2015! I am still working on my list now, but if you have any suggestions… please let me know!!!Celebrate New Years in Miami (with my Sissy Poo)Fly to another country just for a party (Tons of fun with friends!

My Little Sister’s Initiation into being an Adrenaline Junkie (World’s Tallest Slingshot)

  I have been an adrenaline junkie as far back as I can remember… having already gone skydiving, bungee jumping and hang gliding to name a few… I am still seeking my next rush!! My little sister has been asking me to come on an adventure for a while now, eager to one day skydive with me. I am however, not prepared to jump out of a plane with my sister just yet. So I brought her, as test, to the Worlds Tallest Slingshot in Orlando to see if she was really ready to roll with the “Big Dogs”!Looking at this slingshot, it really doesn’t seem too bad! However, being thrown into the air well… let’s just say that’s another story. I am pretty sure my eyes rolled into the back of my head, but overall it was an enjoyable experience for just 25 bucks!!!   After viewing the tape …

That Time When… I Walked on Water in Estonia

So, where the heck is Estonia? That is pretty much what I said when I decided to go on a Scandinavian tour… by this I was thinking of countries like Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark. However, I ended up also exploring other countries as well… like Estonia. Just a ferry ride away from Helsinki, Finland I explored an unknown land to me. I started with my usual Free Walking Tours (which I recommend to anyone that wants to get a good feel for their new surrounding while traveling) and was impressed with the very adorable architecture of the area. After trying Elk Soup (which wasn’t bad by the way), Seeing Patarei Prison only closed in 2005 (truly a hell hole, and unbelievable that prisoners were held there), taking beautiful pictures from Kohtu Platform seeing all of Tallinn… I still needed something adventurous.. Something new… So, I asked the Free Walking …

YOLO

You Only Live Once!! Definitely something I believe in. If you want to do it, I say make it happen. Don’t sit around waiting until you have time, make more money, or find the right people. There is no better time than when you desire to make something happen. And this goes for all things in your life.. not just your crazy adventures. As for me, I like to create the right moment to make all my desires happen…. So far as it related to adrenaline rush I have been able to: 1) Sky dive over Washington DC 2) Bungee Jump into the Nile River in Uganda 3) Hanglide in Clewiston, Florida 4) Attempt to swim with Shark in San Diego, California (Epic fail, because I definitely can’t swim) 5) Reverse Bungee/Slingshot in Orlando, Florida 6) Rock Climb somewhere in California I can’t think of others right now… but I …
