Special Trips To Add To Your Bucket List

It is probably safe to say, most people all around the world have heard the phrase, “Bucket list”. In fact, having a bucket list is a common thing. But where did such a phrase originate from?

In 2007 an American and British screenwriter, Justin Zackham was preparing for a film. He called his film, “Justin’s List Of Things To Do Before I Kick the bucket.” After repeating it a few times, it got shortened to, “Justin’s Bucket List.” This little phrase caught on and is still going strong. By the way, the new phrase was used as the title of the movie too! Some people put a lot of unusual things on their bucket lists. For example, some people have listed some of the following (though not in any particular order):

Capture a fugitive
Get face-to-face with a tiger (or other member of the big cat species)
Go to the top of the highest building (or) Highest Mountain
Meet someone who has made the world a better place.
Taste foreign foods that we would never eat at home
Go to a town where I am not known and create a new identity for the day
Volunteer at a Children’s centre (or any kid charity) and show up in costume to entertain the kids
Bungee jump in a wind suit

These are just a few of the more common things people list on their bucket list. For more examples, click here. Of course, there is one item that is on nearly every bucket list I have ever seen. Those items are travel destinations. Every bucket list will have trips to specific places.

Some may choose to travel to the homeland of their ancestors. Some will go to places they have read about, like the ski slopes of Colorado, or historical London. These destinations come up often when people win the lottery, and the winners begin making their plans.
