100 Things to do While Young  the Ultimate Bucket List ?

We only have one life and it is our duty to make the most of it. We can grasp life with both hands and squeeze all the good stuff out of it or we can sit on the sidelines and watch it happen. Here is my list of the things to do while you're young. Age is no barrier to any of them and many of these are equally fabulous when you're older, but do them sooner and you have time for more things later.

p.s. I'm not including any specific travel adventures/destinations because you need a separate bucket list for that!
