Great list! Your list looks like something I would love to do.

You know, the thing that intrigues me about lists like this is how there will always be items that totally resonate with me, some that leave me lukewarm but understanding why someone would find fulfillment in them, and others that just make me scratch my head and wonder why anyone would ever do them, let alone aspire to them.

That's not a bad thing. It's incredible how alike and yet completely different we can be from another person at the very same time.
