27 Things to Do Before I Turn 28 ... or just sometime before I die...

On my 25th birthday, I came up with a list of 25 goals I wanted to do. I'm going to rewrite my list without consulting the last one, to compare how my goals have changed/stayed the same/been fulfilled. The top two have been on my list since I was in high school.

27 Things To Do Before I Turn 28 ... or just sometime before I die
1. Go to Ireland
2. Go to England.
3. Go back to Paris.
