Now before I started this list, I didn’t plan on 50…it just actually came to that when I thought about each country in Europe and what I REALLY think should be done before you die.
You have things like climb the eiffel tower, see the Mona Lisa, take the London Eye, take train through Switzerland…etc. But this is my list cause I think these things either changed me or really were something that I continue to remember. I was actually a little bit surprised by the number in some countries and none in ones I really enjoy, but nothing really stood out as “HAVE TO DO”. (And yes, I've done all of these things!)
So you may agree or disagree and maybe 10 years ago my list would have been see st peters cathedral, see notre dame cathedral….but life is full of experience:
