The Unknown Adventurer

This is my '100 things to do before I die' adventure. It took me a long time to write this list and I have included things which are achievable now and some things that I will need to work towards. I decided to embark on this adventure as I feel very lost at the moment, I am unsure of what i want to do with my life and so I thought this would be a good starting point.
