Ways to begin living dangerously
11. See the 7 wonders of the Natural world.
I love, love to travel. I have lived in Ireland for 4 months, traveled South Africa for 10 days, spent the best weekend of my life in Paris, made the mistake of going to London twice (for 2 days and an 5 hr layover) and not seeing Buckingham Palace and spent 5 glorious days eating gelato (literally) in Rome.
I’d love to see ALL the wonders of the world, Industrial, natural, and of course ancient, since I am a huge history buff. (yes, yes, I know that some of them are not visitable, like the hanging gardens of Babylon, but a girl can dream)
