Bucket List Adventures: 10 Incredible Journeys to Experience Before You Die
Writing down the things you’d like to see and do before you die can be a fun experience. But simply writing a Bucket List and never actually doing anything on the list is a lesson in futility and frustration with yourself. Why can’t you ever reach your goals?
Don't beat yourself up - get out there and live life! Author Annette White has made a second career out of writing her bucket list… and then crossing things off of it! One day this owner of a Michelin-recommended restaurant in Northern California decided to live her dream. On her popular blog, bucketlistjourney.net , she has chronicled her adventures on virtually every continent — from walking among wildebeests in Africa to climbing an active volcano in Guatemala to swimming in a lake in Palau surrounded by thousands of jellyfish. In Bucket List Adventures , she takes you along for the ride, and shows you how to live your adventures, too.
Bucket List Adventures is not only a practical travel book – sharing detailed information on lodging, helpful resources, etc. – but also an inspiration for people to step out of their comfort zones. In short, Annette helps readers to create their own Bucket List, and then she gives them the tools and encouragement they need to live that list. An extensive appendix includes information about 50 additional places to consider for your future adventures.
Imagine the sense of accomplishment and excitement when you finally reach your goals, and Bucket List Adventures wants to help you get there.

Meh. I don't need anyone to teach me how to build a bucket list or encourage me to travel! Skimmed this at most.

Travel bug -- I have it!
I have been wanting to downsize, change our lifestyle and see the world as much as we can, so when I stumbled on this book I snatched it up from the library and fell in love! Yes - I ended up buying it!
Her top 10 or not necessarily my own - however a few of her adventures I had never heard of and would love to do now. Others, yes are amazing, but not my MUST sees. My favourite was at the end of each section where she gave practical info like: how to get there, currency, how to travel, hotel price ranges and some suggestions, must sees...etc..
It's current. It's inspiring. It's practical. It talks about travel, not just abroad, but locally and close to home. It says how items on your list don't have to involve travel. It is helping me to organize/prioritize my very own "bucket list" from little to big!

Good tips and motivation on starting and organizing a bucket list for life. Found the Barcelona section helpful but skipped other travel chapters.

Two, not ten
I loved the descriptions of two adventures, and especially the tips on how to get there. I HATED that there were only two.

Makes you think about what you really want on your bucket list and to prioritize.
