“Everybody dies, but not everybody lives.” Prince Ea
Its important to live a worthy life. I want to experience the beauty of this earth while i still can and to have a hell of a time living this amazing life!!! I was inspired by a story of these guys who went on a quest to experience their bucket list with very minimal resources soon after college but their story fascinated a lot of people world wide and the universe somehow bent over and made it happen for them. People from all over the world pulled resources for them as they went through their journey and what a bucket list experience they had!!!I have learnt that with life you do not have to wait for any and every resource you need to be available for you to achieve anything. I know i sound like iv been smoking some pot but i have had experiences whereby when i told myself id do something not knowing how i would make it happen but that conviction and taking the first step led me to the next and the next and so on until that idea became reality. So wish me luck. I will share my experiences as i go.

What i managed to do so far
This is #17. I got my Masters Degree in June of 2018 from Africa University in Mutare, Zimbabwe. I wrote the bucket list in 2016 and started the degree later that year. This was a proud moment for me because not only did i graduate in record time of 1 and a half years a program meant to take 2 years to complete but i started the program with no idea how i would pay for it. I couldn’t afford it. I never missed an exam for non payment. Somehow i got it done. Go figure 🙂
