"Life is there to be enjoyed! People can get too caught up on expectations put on them from society and add extra stress to their lives by trying to achieve these expectations, only to discover that it hasn’t been enjoyable or fulfilling in any way. I want to push boundaries, expectations and stereotypes, which is why I started my bucket list in 2006- to give me an excuse to get out there and make the most of life. And also, what a great way to share your experiences with everyone! Live life, Love life and Laugh in life with no regrets!!!!"

Why did you decide to become a campaigner? I came across the website when I ‘googled’ some more ideas to add to my bucket list and everything about it was energetic and enthusiastic! I love that campaigners are like-minded people who have a positive outlook on life and want to make the most of it! What a great way to share your experiences and encourage others to jump on the bandwagon!

Note for family and friends- Hi guys! We only have this life to live- look at all of the opportunities we have in our lives to make the most of it and to make it enjoyable and memorable! Even those of you with long-term commitments, I really encourage you all to start a list of things you’d love to do in an ‘ideal world’ and hold onto it, because who knows where life takes you and where you’ll be in the next year, 2, 10, 30 and 50 years. Why not???
