Where to next?

What countries do you want to visit?

I love to travel! In 2024 I’ve traveled to Vermont, Rhode Island, New York City, Upstate New York and Texas. I have two International destinations booked before the end of the year. Where to, you ask?

I’m attending a family reunion with with a multi-destination trip in the Philippines and an en plein air painting retreat in Spain with Sari Shryack. I created a shotty want-to-visit/visited list in 2020 that I added to the bucket list that changed my life, but below I created a cleaner, updated version.

I made this map and printable glitter party banner over a decade ago!

I plan to come back to this post to link to others about individual trips.

    Well, good for you. You’re living the dream.

  2. Beautiful list! And so detailed!

    • Kelsie O says:

      Haha thanks! A version of the list has been in my Notes app for almost a decade. I’ve gone back many times to edit it, and during those moments I would wonder “Why did I want to go there?” I eventually wrote those whys out so future me wouldn’t have to keep repeating the same behavior 😅

What do you think?
