Hey Guys. beddgelert here. (May I request a username tag?) I’m 24 and from England. I was inspired by audiopineapple’s list to have a go at this. Mind if I join you wonderful peeps in the recounting of your epic 1001 day quests? I keep tweaking my list but I think (hope) I’ve finally settled on one to stick to. I have three spare spaces just in case :)
