Create with Kim!

It is true I have started a “Bucket List” but I do not plan for a terminal diagnosis. And I am not going to wait until I am “older”. I plan to go to Europe in less than 1.5 years, perhaps in as little as 9 months.

Now, to achieve the goal I must think how I am going to earn my monies. I have been living below a certain level–some call it being a “starving artist”–I like to call it frugal.

I figure the best way to raise my standard of living and put back money for this trip is to come up with fundraising that is specifically for this goal.

If you have creative ideas–please comment below.

My shortened Bucket List:

• Publish a chapbook of poetry
• Publish a book of non-fiction

• Visit California: Redwoods, San Fransisco and more
• Publish several ebook/pamphlets
• Travel to Asia
• Travel to Europe
• Sky Dive
• Swim across a river
• Visit Isle Royale

• Loose 30-50 pounds

• Have a photo published in Lake Superior Magazine, or Traverse.
• See the river Ganges
• Be a visiting writer in a State Park (Isle Royal, Porkies, Sleeping Bear, or Picture Rocks)
• Shop for produce in an open air market in a foreign country.
• Have cheese, bread in wine in France with friends while creating (writing,art, photo)
