The List

Some of the things on my list will be easy to accomplish.
Other things… I don’t even know where to start.
If you’re able to help with anything, big or small, it’d mean a lot. If you do help me cross something off my list, make sure to get a picture of me doing it and email it to my parents.

By the way, I also have an Instagram where I post more casual pictures of my adventures, so you can send those in to my parents as well!
