#Project30Before30

There was a point in time when I wanted to grow older quickly so I can do adult things like eat ice-cream for dinner or get a perm/tattoo etc.  Kid, so short-sighted!!

I have been thinking a lot over the last few months about what I want to achieve by the time I turn 30. Having pored over the many bucket lists and x-things-to-do-before-turning-x lists online, I wanted a solid list of things that are specific ("travel more" or "get in shape" is so broad) and somewhat doable ("find someone to love" or "change the world" is not really within one's control).  Here it is - check out #project30before30 on my Instagram account @galflower as well:
