Who doesn’t have a list of places they want to go and things they want to experience? No one that’s who! So below is a list of the most common adventures on people's bucket lists and the honest truth of what to really expect and how to get the most out of it.
Sitting at a Café in Paris:
This is the dream of many a woman (and even for some dudes!). Paris is the city of love and lights, and people watching is an amazing experience since the city is flooded with people from all over the globe, but it comes at a price. Some cafés are crazy expensive! If you’re getting a cup of café au lait it’s not as big of a deal, but if you’re looking for an ice-cold Coke on a hot summers day it could cost you seven euros, so start saving up!
Zip Lining Through the Rainforest:
One of the most amazing experiences in the worlds, you get to be up-close and personal with the tropical plant and animal life in a way not many people get to be. If you’re lucky you may even, see a monkey or a snake high up in the tree tops. But beware of what company you go with because some require you break yourself on the zip line and worrying about that takes away from the beauty all around you!
Eating Pizza in Italy:
Okay just to preface, Italian pizza is NOTHING like American pizza. But if you’re looking for the real stuff I suggest finding a rundown little place on a side street in town. This may seem odd, but other places that are located on main squares and streets usually are made to serve tourists, so you might as well be eating your usual Friday night delivery!Drinking Guinness in Ireland:
Well… not much to say other then you’ll never drink it at home again because it will never taste as good. Oh and be safe and make good decisions.Hiking the Mountains of Hawai’i:
Another experience like no other. The views are amazing and the destination are always worth the journey tenfold, but this requires a lot of planning. You need to be prepared to any kind of terrain because what is dirt one day can be two feet of mud the next. You all need to make sure you pack enough water for each hiker, because even though it may not be hot, its humid and these hikes are demanding! The better you take care of yourself the better the memories will be.
Exploring the Outback:
Again be ready for anything, specifically the sight of large bugs and spiders because they will most definitely be creeping around. And there may not be much to see at times but when you do find something it really amazing! But don’t let it distract you too much have water and bug spray at the ready, Australia don’t mess around.
The
Seeing the Volcanoes and Fosses of Iceland:
Iceland is the picture perfect post card of landscape with its volcanoes, quiet streams and roaring waterfalls. But make sure to pack your days full of adventure so you’re ready to sleep each night, because if you’re not in the Capital of Reykjavik everything closes SUPER early! This may be inconvenient for the million visitors that pass through every year but it great for the people who live there!
