As
more and more birthdays pass, life seems to get more and more
predictable. Where’s the excitement? Where’s the spontaneity? When I
turned 30, I realized that I was eating at the same restaurants, driving
the same routes, and doing the same routine everyday. I needed to
spice things up! There were SO MANY things I wanted/needed to
do…travel, learn, adventure!
With the help of our HowDoesShe Facebook
fans, we’ve compiled the PERFECT birthday bucket list! If you’re ready
to step a little out of your comfort zone and have some fun, print this
activity list and try completing as many of them as you can before your
next birthday!
