I have always been a big fan of bucket lists. I think they can provide extra motivation but also help to narrow down where you want to visit next. My travel bucket list is also written on paper & I highlight things once I have done/seen/visited them.

The Book Moo
(December 3, 2017 - 2:31 pm)Love this post! How did you make the map at the end? I really want to do one, is interesting to see how much of the world you have seen!!!
bexcapades
(December 3, 2017 - 2:40 pm)It’s a screenshot from the ‘been’ app, just search it on the App Store and you basically just click which countries you’ve been to & it highlights them in orange and tells you the percent of the world(mine is only 7%😱) and each continent!
The Book Moo
(December 3, 2017 - 2:44 pm)Ooooo I love that idea, doing it right now!!!! Thank you 😘
bexcapades
(December 3, 2017 - 2:46 pm)You’re very welcome, my most visited continent is Europe (obvs) and I’ve visited 26% of European countries so it’s still not good enough! It’s good because you remember smaller countries that you’d never think of! ☺️
The Book Moo

Nicole Lauren Blake (@NicoleLBlake)
(January 28, 2018 - 6:14 am)Wow, omg, it’s so long! We have one but it’s about half the length at the minute! One thing I will say is deffo change Port Douglas for Cairns! So much more to see and it actually feels like a place people live. PD felt like just a big resort when we went, if that makes any sense. We’ve lived in Cairns for 4 months now though and we love it, we don’t want to leave and will be sad when we do in 2 weeks time.
bexcapades
(January 28, 2018 - 6:23 am)I can never narrow things down – I just keep adding! Thank you for the advice – we’re definitely planning on visiting cairns too – I’d been looking at Port Douglas for a potential living situation! How long have you been in Aus?
