Default Things to do before you die

What is your dream? where is the special place you've always wanted to visit? Do you want to leap out of a plane at 20,000 feet? Bungee jump over The Amazon, meditate in Tibet, meet a movie star or sing in a rock band. Does everyone have a things to do list? Have you achieved yours?

Ok I'll start, I've always wanted to

1. Visit the Arena di Verona

2. Scuba dive the Great Barrier Reef

3. Travel on Concorde (ok I missed it)

What a neat thread! I bought my brother a book about 1001 things to do before you die, interesting little book.

I have always wanted to boat through the Amazon river and watch the animals, I love parrots.

I would love to travel through Europe and Asia for the culinary aspects, especially Spain, Italy, Thailand, China, and Japan.

I want to travel for volunteer work at least once, Africa would be a moving experience.

As you can tell, I enjoy traveling and seeing culture.

A couple of years ago, a Scottish newspaper published an article called '100 things to do in Scotland before you die'... I've done about 80 per cent of them.... some of them are NEVER going to be done by me!

One thing I'd really like to do is to re-visit Petra, before my health means the trek would be too much for me
