It's a List Thing

 

I’m so excited for this blog! I always ask people what is in their bucket list, especially places they want to travel to. It says so much about the person and what they are really craving for when it comes to travel. For that reason, we’re sharing some of the top places in our bucket List. We both have WAY longer lists than this one, if you guys would like to see our full bucket list, let us know!

 

#1 Iceland

Iceland is sincerely the top place for both of us. With its beautiful scenery and culture, we really cannot wait to make this dream come true. Diamond Beach is for sure a sight to see. Iceland is more expensive than most places we are wanting to go and this is why we have held off from it. However, this won’t hold us back much longer since this is a trip we are planning to realize by next year.

 

#2 Brazil

Brazil has always been my number one destination. I love the Portuguese language and every time I meet a local, I feel like we’ve known each other forever. It has beautiful beaches and scenery that everyone would enjoy. I would love to visit surrounding islands such as Ilhabela and attend the famous Carnival festival. Feeling secure is a huge thing for us when it comes to travel therefore we plan on researching this country more to be able to enjoy it fully and safely.






 


#3 Thailand

Although this is a trip we are taking VERY soon, this has been for sure on top of my bucket list of a couple of years and now we’re realizing it. It is home to beautiful architecture, culture, food, and beaches. The famous Phi Phi Islands are also a sight to see with them becoming a popular destination over the past two years. It is extremely affordable which makes it available for anyone who wants to get out of their comfort zone. We cannot wait to go.





 



#4 Greece

Although Cristian has been to Greece, I haven’t. This is my dream place to be with beautiful crystal clear waters and beautiful architecture. My parents went on their honeymoon here making it even more special. We hope to go early next year before peak season starts so we can enjoy all the Greek islands as well!

 

#5 Cape Town

Cape Town is for sure on Cristian’s bucket list. Africa is culture packed with adventure written all over it. Cape Town is known for its population of Great White sharks and if you fearless, you could cage dive with these beautiful creatures. We can’t wait to visit this beautiful city and cross adventures out of our bucket list. AH! Cuba! I cannot WAIT to go to Cuba this summer. We’re both from Puerto Rico therefore the culture is extremely similar. However, the history and the people are much different and we cannot wait to experience it.

 

#6 Cuba

AH! Cuba! I cannot WAIT to go to Cuba this summer. We’re both from Puerto Rico therefore the culture is extremely similar. However, the history and the people are much different and we cannot wait to experience it. With amazing food that gets anyones mouth watery and crystal clear beaches, everyone can enjoy this beautiful Caribbean island.
