The List

// October 12th, 2009 // Feature


Everyone has one. Whether you write it down, type it, or store it deep in the bowels of your mind, it’s always there, lurking. The List. All the places you want to go, the sights you want to see, the experiences you want to have. Generally, I’m not a fan of The List, because it just makes me depressed looking at how many things I haven’t crossed off it yet. But today, I’m feeling good. Today, I’m feeling that if I put the list out there, I can make it real, and then I can conquer it. Watch out The List. I’m on to you.

The List

    • Milford Track, New Zealand

    The Inca Trail to Machu Picchu is one of the few trips I would consider taking a “travel tourist” group with. There is a particular one that only does groups of 5 and takes you down the Inca trail get to see Macchu Picchu then get to stay with the Incas and help them with preservation of the area as well as humanitarian work for their villages
