Travel Goals (To Be Accomplished ASAP!)
What is this, you ask? well now…. this is no less than the sum total of my travel goals, summarized and categorized for your amusement and eye-rolling pleasure. Some goals, obviously, are easier than others.. but I intend to accomplish every last one of them. As I complete one, though, I shall add another or extend the goal… so the lists will never, ever be complete.
