I had started and completed several tasks on a 101 in 1001 list but I knew that moving to a new country wouldmake some of the unfinished tasks impossible. With that in mind, I started a new list but, early on, I realized I didn't know enough about my new home to come up with 101 things. There are dozens - hundreds? - of things out there that I'm completely unaware of but that I would love to do, challenging or otherwise. So I'm going to start a list but merely call it a Things to Do list - no limit to the number of things I want to do or how long I have to complete them. A never ending 101+ list.
My list - so far -
bold - complete
italics - working on
