A couple years ago I wrote a 30 before 30 list. Reading it back now, I was clearly delusional. Not only did I imagine that I would have unlimited funds and time for the items on the list.. but I really did have zero idea about the twists and turns my life was about to take.

I would like to re-write that list, with an appropriate level of ambition, filling it with things I know will bring me joy. As I limit my screen time, I am noticing how much time I'm taking back, how much time I was unintentionally giving away to a box instead of doing things that make me happy. As of today, I have 548 days until I turn 30, I'd really quite like to not waste those. So here is my revised list of intentions:

1. Climb Scafell, Snowden & Nevis 
2. Go to a festival (yes I have still not done this)
3. Organise a family camping holiday 
4. Stargazing in a Dark Sky Place with Alpha Centauri (you know who you are)
5. Visit my Norway sister in Berlin <3 
6. Bordeaux with the dropouts <3
7. Start actually learning a new language 
8. Get over my nerves around driving and get behind the wheel again 
9. Take some sort of dance class 
10. Paris with mum <3
11. Make sticky toffee pudding
12. Do another cool workaway 
13. Start learning the guitar
14. Take a hitch hiking trip 
15. no phone road trip 
16. Snorkel in Falmouth 
17. Start basketball again 
18. Ice skating in Canada 
19. Do another long distance hike 
20. learn the splits
21. invert in pole
22. Go on a night out in Newcastle
23. Go to a rave
24. Knit a scarf
25. Have the perfect hot chocolate on a winter day in Vancouver 
26. Make an art collection worthy of exhibiting 
27. go to a roller disco 
28. actually dress up on halloween again 
29. make cinnamon buns 
30. this last one is too personal for the internet but future me will know what it is :) 

I started writing this before midnight, it has now passed.. which means that I know only have 547 days to do this list.

Remember to live intentionally and put focus on small things that will bring you joy <3 

The photo for this post will come when I tick the first thing off :)
