I am a lover of a challenge and haven’t done one since my ’30 things to do before I turn 30′ a massive 2 years ago. When I saw Kelley’s list I was inspired to do 101 things in 1001 days. I’ve thought long and hard about the items on my list, some frighten the bejesus out of me and some I have been meaning to do for a long time but not gotten around to them. Now I have to! You can find the list below and links to relevant posts when each item has been ticked off.
