Having a 30 before 30 list was really inspiring and helped me to stay focused with my life goals. I didn’t accomplish all 30 of my goals, but I did a lot to better myself. That’s the true focus of my goal lists; goals that will help me become the best version of myself!
Without further ado, my 35 before 35 list (in no particular order):

I know I’m a little biased, but for #27, I’d really recommend Boston. I did a trip with my dad in July, and had three of the best days of my life out there. I will say it’s harder to drive there, but I think that’s part of the appeal – the history of it, I would argue, shows that it’s meant to be walked. But that’s just me. Hope you get to do that trip with your mom.
