There are a great many things I would like to do and experience while I am abroad, and in order to help me reach the goals, I decided to compile this list (though a few items are also from a list a good friend made for me). Below is the list and I will post about each item that gets checked off. If it seems that I am doing a poor job of making it through the list, feel free to badger me about it. :)
