Bucketlist

I believe there's a movie with this name. =) Bucket, I believes, comes from the phrase 'kicking the bucket' and the list...well, is pretty much what it says it is: a list. In short, a list of things to do before you kick the bucket.
I have yet to see it, but I decided I should think about it and make my own 'bucketlist'.

1. Travel Europe- this would be the most amazing travel of a lifetime. There's immense culture in Europe that I have yet to discover and missing out of this trip would just be an absolute sin.

2. Fly- and no, I don't mean on an airplane. =P I've done that plenty of times. I want to fly with my own wings. Hang-gliding, bungee jumping, sky diving, the possibilities are endless. =)

3. Walk Table Mountain, visit Robben Island- in South Africa, this mountain is worshipped, even from afar, and it's amazing how this mountain just has no peak. =/ Although this does make it ideal for hiking on top of it. The views are amazing, and the weather in summer- just makes the whole trip seem worthwhile. And Robben Island? Hey, who wouldn't want to go see the place where the most amazing man was forced to spend most of his life fighting for freedom?

4. Go on an Archaeological Dig- how amazing would it be, just to discover an artefact? Something that was once used so many years back. I still shudder at the thought that life existed on these grounds so many years back. Going through Sterkfontein Caves in Gauteng was already my experience of a lifetime: an archaeological dig would blow me off my feet!

5. Do community work in Africa/Asia- theoretically, I've done this in Trek in South Africa, but I loved the experience and I'd love to do it all over again. =) Preferably through teaching, and in South East Asia, since I feel I need to give back something to my own community.

6. Live in Japan- I love the culture, the food [sushi], the place, the food [sashimi], the people, the food [udon]...what else need I say???

7. Take Dancing Classes- the cha cha cha, the samba and the tango really appeals. =)

I think there's more, but so far, those are my aims for the moment. =)
