BootsnAll 2012

Hey there, 2012.  Let’s be best friends.  I’m upping the ante on my travel focus.

BootsnAll announced their Indie Travel Challenge.  Each week, a new prompt will be posted, allowing for travelers to reflect, share & rejoice in their experiences.  & #1 is (not shockingly) about resolutions, dreams & desires for the new year.

What I Know For Sure

  • Southern California in October for a dear friend’s wedding
  • Writing more!  Natch.  Specifically, throwing in a dash of bravery & submitting some work.

What I Hope Will Develop

  • Visiting Italy (Cinque Terre, Palermo…)
  • Researching long term travel to Oceania
  • Colorado for the Telluride Bluegrass Festival in June
  • Buying a new camera.  Mine is kaput after a mediocre dog walk turned into an elk hunting leash lunge.
  • Seeing some of Canada’s east coast – I’m thinking Nova Scotia.

Meanwhile, the first part of my year will be devoted to developing a more stable income & work routine.

A Taste of Bucket List Action

  • Travel through Europe on the Orient Express (thanks Agatha Christie)
  • Fly in a hot air balloon
  • Go on a pilgrimage to Dollywood

Some friends did the Dollywood trip (after seeing her at Casina Rama). They loved it!
