I\u2019ve never made a bucketlist before \u2013 a list of things to do before you peg it \u2013 it\u2019s really quite morbid isn\u2019t it? Nevermind, this will cheer you up\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Greece.<\/strong><br>I was going to be more specific here and say perhaps Mykonos or Santorini but honestly, I would happily take anything going. Greece looks like the ultimate place for a week away from the world, and I\u2019m really not sure why I haven\u2019t visited yet. Those insanely blue waters and all the little houses on the hills \u2013 gaaddammit someone fund my trip.<br>I think this will be my next holiday destination, I need to lap up that sun and wave goodbye to my pasty limbs. That\u2019s Mykonos in the top left there by the way, isn\u2019t it heavenly? <em>packs bags, leaves with Mouse<\/em><\/li><li><strong>New York<\/strong><br>Oh, so typical \u2013 I blame years of Gossip Girl binges. There\u2019s not a female out there that doesn\u2019t want to head to New York, I get all weirdly anxious and excited when I catch a glance at even a picture of the city so I\u2019ll probably pie it with excitement if I ever do go. Imagine that?<br>I think I would just get so panicky, because I would want to do everything and never sleep, except that I love sleeping \u2013 it\u2019s probably best if I just stay at home if I\u2019m being honest with myself.<br>Seriously though, I would shop so much, eat so much\u2026 it would be divine. I remember reading Lindsey Kelk\u2019s \u2018I Heart New York\u2019 a few years ago and since then visiting the city has been a firm fixture on my \u2018to do\u2019 list. One day, when I win the lottery (which will come after I buy a lottery ticket).<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"612\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/5-THINGS-THE-TRAVEL-BUCKETLIST.2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-86\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/5-THINGS-THE-TRAVEL-BUCKETLIST.2.jpg 612w, https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/5-THINGS-THE-TRAVEL-BUCKETLIST.2-300x196.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\" \/><figcaption>fvb 04<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\"><li><strong>Fiji<\/strong><br>I think Fiji might actually be paradise. Can anyone confirm or deny? My parents went here for their honeymoon, since it\u2019s not too far from New Zealand, and I\u2019ve always wanted to visit. It looks so serene and so exotic \u2013 basically the opposite of Scotland in just about every way possible. I would sleep in the overwater lagoon huts (maybe, looks a bit questionable really. Are they safe? What about at high tide? How do you even reach them?), visit the Garden of Eden (steering clear of any fruit, forbidden or otherwise) and go snorkelling with my fish friends. Dreamy!<\/li><li><strong>Scandinavia<\/strong><br>Okay, cheating again\u2026 what can I say, I am not a team player. Seriously though, if you\u2019re going to go to one, may as well visit them all, amiright canigetahellyeah. My brother works around these waters a lot so I see daily snaps of mostly Norway and Denmark, with a bit of Sweden thrown in.<br>I would go to Norway to see Pulpit Rock (there\u2019s a lift, right?), stockpile on cute Instagram pictures in Aarhus in Denmark and go over the \u00d8resund Bridge to Sweden and pillage their clothing stores. Oh, and go to Moomin World in Finland, naturally. Who\u2019s on board?<\/li><li><strong>Dubai<\/strong><br>Dubai is one of those places that I don\u2019t think I\u2019ll believe exists, until I see it for myself. I know we have Google and all, but it just doesn\u2019t seem real. I would love to just spend a week or two here, taking it all in. Have a dip in the world\u2019s largest swimming pool and go up the tallest building, oh and see the Palm Islands and visit some of their insane shopping malls. I reckon I could live there for a month before anyone noticed.<br>Like New Yoiik, Dubai just seems so full on with so much to do!<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s on your travel bucketlist?<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I started making a travel bucketlist and realised that it had no ending, so think&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":85,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[9],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/84"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=84"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/84\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1400,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/84\/revisions\/1400"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/85"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=84"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=84"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=84"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
