“Bucket lists” seem to be popping up a lot these days. Whether it’s people spending all their money to fulfill the list, or Jack Nicholson movies, people have been adding and checking off items on these “I wish” lists for years. I haven’t started my own formal bucket list, but there are definitely things I want to do and places I want to see. I’m sure you have a couple of things on your list as well.
World Wonders and Landmarks Abound
A #1 New York Times bestseller, “1,000 Places to See Before You Die” by Patricia Shultz is a cornucopia of travel ideas – both near and far. If you live in the United States or Canada, they have a territory and state breakdown that lists some of the amazing travel destinations that may be near your home. In my own state, I found several “must-see” places that offer wonder and beauty, all within a few hours drive.
Broken down by regions and countries, “1000 Places to See Before You Die”, is a thorough list of world wonders, amazing vistas, and important landmarks. You can find yourself just flipping the pages of the book to discover new places to visit. The details of locations are thorough but not too lengthy, ensuring that you get the critical information for each destination. I found myself reading about places to see from Amsterdam to Canada. Even if I never make it to those countries, I still enjoyed reading about these amazing places to see.
“1000 Places to See Before You Die” does an excellent job of taking you on little mini-journeys and introducing you to exotic and must-see locations around the world. Accompanying full color pictures help bring some of the must-see places to life. After reading this book, your bucket list might become a little longer.
