In the beginning...

Well, Here we go. No idea how this blog business works, but gonna give it a bash. This blog will be dedicated to my list of "30 things to do before I turn 30". The countdown has begun. Well it began over 28 years ago, but its still counting down and getting closer and closer. 
Time to achieve some stuff, on top of what I have already done...
Some of this is fun, some silly, some very tough, some simply things I want to do. Some I have talked the talk, but never actually done it. This is my motivation to do more, see more and be more.
I hope that friends will support me in my conquest!

Here goes...
