Bucket List Bi-weekly

This post is part of a series called Bucket List Bi-Weekly.
See the first post here!

The amazing thing about this bucket list bi-weekly stuff is that a) it's one of my favorite things to post (which is probably pretty obvious since I'm kind of quiet a lot of the time otherwise!) and b) it's AMAZING the number of things I have on my bucket list. I wonder if these bi-weeklies will ever end! 

Here are five more items for my perpetual bucket list. Anyone got any suggestions? Leave them in the comments or direct message me! I'd love to hear them xx

1) Find the Dark Hedges

This picture and ones like it seem to be everywhere, and somewhere in the back of my head, I've always known these hedges are in Ireland somewhere. Well, I've recently discovered where they are more definitively, and a road-trip must now occur....

2) Take a music RTW trip

Round-the-world trips (RTW for those of us in the know) are all the rage these days, it seems. In fact,  though little research about the topic exists, I honestly believe that there are more travel blogs than any other type of blog on the Internet. And all of them tout RTWs as one of the most epic and fulfilling experiences. Everyone's RTW will be different, but I've always dreamed of making a musical RTW, or even several music trip adventures, hunting down local musics, and exploring artistic travel. Here's hoping....!!

3) Learn to play the trad flute

When I first came to Ireland in 2010, I bet my dad $10 that I would learn an instrument. I picked up the tin whistle, and over the last few years (and despite everyone's laughter when I tell them my instrument) I've gotten fairly good at it. And though I will be happy with my tin whistle for the rest of my days, I have always wanted to learn to play the flute.

4) Hike to the Fairy Pools on the Isle of Skye

I was in Scotland recently, and I even got to take a bus tour around the Highlands. But I didn't make it as far as the Isle of Skye. Next time :)

5) Watch all the Harry Potter movies in one day

"After all this time?" "Always."

Enough said.
