Stretching and expanding our minds, appetite and cooking skills as we travel around this crazy planet...

My Ultimate List!

 

I love a good list! This is my ever growing list of all the places I want to go to, the things I want to see and the experiences I want to have.

My list is getting more ambitious and longer all the time, but I figure there is no harm in dreaming. I love learning from other peoples’ travels, so this list is constantly growing as I read about a new place, or come across someone’s latest adventure that looks fantastic.

What destinations are on your “to do” list, or do you have a brilliant travel experience I should be adding to my list?
