My Travel Bucket List as of 2020 – Ideas for Adventure Travel Around the World
Having a travel bucket list is a motivator. It reminds me of why I run a travel blog, why I share my experiences with you, and why I intend to keep traveling for a long time. The only problem is that this travel bucket list grows faster than I can tick off the destinations.
Some people full their bucket list with fancy resorts and lavish vacations. My list is different, it is built around authentic experiences, seeing and understanding the world as it truly is.
Here you will find a very diverse set of travel ideas from living on a remote island without electricity to climbing some of the world’s tallest summits. Some things you may have heard of, others will be a complete surprise.

And finally, remember to subscribe to my email list at the bottom of this post. I’ll update this travel bucket list every 6 to 12 months and send you an update of what’s added, and what’s been achieved.
