the Travel List Challenge

Posted on the 12 April 2012 by Danielleabroad
Morning, sweethearts. Thank you to those who read my last post, especially if you shared it with others and/or so eloquently commented. It was an incredibly powerful piece. In a stark contrast, today I'm taking part in a list challenge with 100 "must-see" places around the world. I highlighted those I've been to and linked to its blog post if possible. How exciting to see how many amazing places I have yet to visit. (I obviously need to take three round-the-world trips and another cross-country road trip to change that). So glad Julie let me know about it!
