Bella Voglia ~ Beautiful Wish

My NOW list... some call it a bucket list but a la Phil Keoghan... mine has always been called a NOW list. NOW is short for No Opportunity Wasted. It is also the name of his book!

  • Visit Israel
  • Cruise Alaska
  • Complete random acts of kindness for a birthday (done November 10-14, 2011)

  • Fall in love and get married (hmm I guess that is two!)
  • Get healthy
  • Go sailing
  • Hot air balloon ride
  • Learn to like me
  • Meet Elie Wiesel (done, October 87, Washington DC)
  • Visit Switzerland
  • Paddle a canoe or kayak
  • Parasailing
  • Rent a house at the beach for at least 2 weeks
  • Ride on a motorcycle (done November 22, 2010) *
  • Return to Paris-- I'd love to stay 2 weeks

  • See Auschwitz
  • Spend a night in every state ( I am at 24 plus Washington DC)
  • Visit Russia (done, May 1990) When I made this goal it said to visit the USSR. When I went to Tbilisi, Georgia in 1990, it was part of the USSR and the USSR still stood. Although not for long. Georgia declared their independence soon after I returned and the Soviet Union fell soon after that. But I count the goal as completed. But I do want to go back!
