15 Before 30
In March of 2009, just before my 27th birthday, I decided to make a list of the 15 things I wanted to do before my 30th birthday. Ever since then, slowly but surely, I’ve been working towards achieving those goals. For the curious among you, you can read my reasons for including each item on the list in previous blog posts (part one, part two and part three).
As I continue to make progress, I’ll keep this list up-to-date.
