Curious Cally

Welcome to Curious Cally a blog about my life, travels and goal to challenge myself in different ways, 5 years ago I created a Bucket List and whenever I complete the items on the list I review them to share with you what each thing is like. I'd like to say I'd be happy if you all live vicariously through me but the truth is this blogs ambition is to motivate and inspire you to take on the challenges you like and create your own Bucket List of goals.

Many things have happened to me through the years and throughout all my ordeals I learnt to truly live a life fully you must decide what is most important to you, set out to accomplish it, allow yourself to revel in your accomplishments, take the path less traveled wherever possible, fast track learning by seeking helpful information from the right people and above all else, choose to be happy.

My Story

After being depressed from the age of 14, at 18 I had enough of feeling sorry for myself, I wrote a list. I wasn't quite sure at the time what all the things on the list were but I felt like I desperately needed something to work towards, something to smile at every morning I woke up. 46 hours later I was surrounded by hundreds of pieces of scribbled paper, I hadn't moved the entire time writing continuously I had a cramped wrist, two dry pens but most importantly I had my Bucket List.

Since that night my Bucket List has thrown me into all sorts of Adventures, I went on a backpacking trip to Cairns that turned into a road trip to Byron Bay and Nimbin with an Irish Lash that I drank under the table and went to a psychedelic party having the best dreams of my life that night, I lived over in SE Asia for 3 months and after making friends with locals I was invited to a private Indonesian Wedding, after playing beer pong all night I was hungover but through the pain I swam with a baby turtle and in an active volcanic lake, saw Millaa Millaa falls and did the Herbal Essence hair flick before vomiting in a bus full of 25 tourists, met a guy from overseas while in Australia, went Skydiving and on a Holiday to Fiji where I got my Open Water SCUBA Diving License and spent 10 glorious days on a small tropical island sipping juice out of coconuts. As I am writing this in exactly 30 hours I will be boarding a plane to Bali for a Huge Bucket List Adventure with my Best Friend!
