“It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be.”
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, J.K. Rowling
At the time of writing this, I am nearing 28 years old and still do not know what I want to grow up to be but decided that it would be nice to document all the wonderful things that I see, do and achieve on my way there. So here we have it, the full list of 101 things that I want to do before I die. Who knows, I might even grow up along the way to! (Maybe)!
