There is absolutely no use in denying that next year, 2014, I will be turning 30! T.H.I.R.T.Y. Strangely, though, I am quite looking forward to hitting the next decade. When I think back to my early twenties, I shudder at the indecisiveness and the years I spent babbling through insecurities and finding my way in the big bad world! There is something to be said for a contented nature, that really only comes with age (and some kind of strange wisdom), I hope to be even more of the person I am today when I hit my thirties.
Wistful musing aside, I thought I would write a bucket list of '30 Things to do Before I Turn 30'. I have less than one year, that really isn't very long - but when have I ever been one to turn a challenge down?!

Hi, great list! I wish I was about to turn 30 again. I will be 40 in 5 years :-( I feel 18 still so where the years have gone I do not know! I have been thinking if I had a list for my BIG 40 what would it have on there, but instead of thinking about it you have inspired me to make that list!....

Hmmm, I turn 30 in Feb, so I may be a bit late with the pre-30 bucket list at this stage!
Love your list though, there are a few things on there that I'd love to do too (I've wanted to go to Whitby since reading the Whitby Witches trilogy as a child).
Also, knitting in the round is super, super easy. I prefer magic loop, but double pointed needles do make you look like a knitting ninja ;)
Good luck!
Loving the bucket list! Ill be 51 very soon and i feel old! Oh the bronte house is worth a visit! I like anne rices books too!
Love your bucket list! I'm forty in less than 2 yrs so need one for that! I want to learn crochet and want to take little L out and about too! Congrats on a great list! Samantha x
