Test: What Does Your Bucket List Look Like?

This test on what your Bucket List looks like was password protected until November 7, 2019. As we no longer provide a newsletter, we could hardly send the password via email as was done at the blog's launch.

To help you get started on creating your Bucket List while you're alive, here's a little questionnaire: 15 simple questions (in appearance!) aimed at guiding you and helping you imagine certain points you may not have thought of spontaneously...

If you don't know what a Bucket List is...

A Bucket List is a list of everything you want to do in your life, and that you would regret not having done when it comes to an end. To learn more, read my article here, and for inspiration, you can take a look at my list!

15 questions to build your Bucket List

Answer as honestly as possible: it's for you! There are no right or wrong answers (as Otis would say in >).

The idea is to help you start reflecting, not to deliver an answer on a platter (that would be too easy!). But I hope this little test will set you on the right path...

Grab a pencil and a piece of paper, isolate yourself, and take a few minutes just for you (it feels good from time to time!), to answer the 15 questions.

My ideal travel destination is:

on a tropical island far from the crowd
by the sea, where the sunset means >
in the mountains, enjoying the tranquility and grandeur of the landscapes
in the desert, enchanted by its mystical charm
in a forest, surrounded by nature

When I think of travel, I think of:

city trip
UNESCO sites, history, culture, and archaeology
relaxation, sunbathing...
hiking and walks
adventures and extreme sports

The continent that attracts me the most is:

Whatever your answer to the question:

Reflect on the > of your attraction to one region of the world over another: family influence, life history, specific images...? Desire/search for landscapes, spirituality, colors, authenticity, a different way of life...

This reflection will also help you gain clarity about the values and ideals that drive you to dream of one place on the globe instead of another.

When I envision myself in my ideal/dream situation (see question 1), besides a change in circumstances, do I see myself differently?

If you answered yes to the last question:

Read this article for my advice!

in terms of attitude and the aura I project (more serene, more positive...)
in terms of appearance (changes in physical looks: slimmer, different hairstyle, new look...)

That's it, you have your Bucket List!

I hope that after this test, you have a thousand and one projects in mind, reflecting all those desires we sometimes think of without lingering, and especially without realizing how important they are!

The essential thing for you now is to embark on this journey of reflection on your dreams and goals in life. Every person is unique, and therefore each Bucket List will be too.
