My 50 before 50 bucket list

Number 42 – Publish a book

Posted on January 3, 2019 by Sonali

I love writing, I have since I was young. I used to love to concoct stories (I still do) and either find someone who I could share, mostly my younger siblings or cousins, or use them in my class writing assignments. I always scored well in languages especially in writing. So, writing and publishing a…

Number 41 – Join a random book club

Posted on January 17, 2018 by Sonali

I love books! I have grown up spending hours in a library or sitting at home reading away! So the idea of a book club excites me! Saying that I have never found one…..i have tried starting one too but with no luck. So it is my utmost desire to join a book club –…

Number 40 – Learn to swim

Posted on January 6, 2018 by Sonali

I grew up in a land locked state and I admit I am scared of water bodies. My nightmarish dreams have always been made of me in a train surrounded by water and nothing else! Looking at all this, you would think that I would have learnt to swim ages ago! But my fear has…

Number 39 – Learn a new skill

Posted on January 5, 2018 by Sonali

I love learning! My motivation for life and everything is based on my learning graph. As long as I continue to grow as a person and learn and discover new things, I am happy! So learning a new skill is on my bucket list. I haven’t figured out what coz I do want to get…

Number 38 – Take a picture everyday for one year

Posted on January 3, 2018 by Sonali

They say a picture says a thousand words. I say it can tell a story! Actually most pictures had a story behind them till someone took that concept and converted it to Instagram stories! Now we have pictures and stories not stories in pictures! I was introduced to Instagram a few years back and while…

Number 37 – Write my blog for one year straight

Posted on December 30, 2017 by Sonali

I love writing my blog, it is therapeutic for me. I have always been able to pen my thoughts better on paper (electronic paper) in this case. I am a vociferous speaker too as most of my acquaintances will agree but writing helps me channel my energies in a focussed way. When I started my…

Number 36 – Learn to bake a cake

Posted on December 29, 2017 by Sonali

I suck at baking! The best I have done is make the pre-mixed cup cakes and even they have turned out to be ordinary! So you can imagine why this is on my bucket list. For once I want to bake a cake from scratch, one that looks and tastes good! I saw this recipe…

Number 35 – Own a business

Posted on December 28, 2017 by Sonali

I love working – I have worked since I was 14. I started by taking tuitions for younger kids and then progressed to do a job. I love the routine, financial freedom, socialising, really all aspects of a job. I know I am good at what I do, partly coz I am passionate and give…

Number 34 – Take a trip on Indian Pacific or The Ghan

Posted on December 27, 2017 by Sonali

One thing you must have noted from my blog is my love for train journeys. It is because they are woven throughout my childhood. Being the only mode of transport for middle class families (flights were only for uber rich), most of our travels were on the quintessential Indian railways in second class. And they…

Number 33 – Stay a night at Leela in Udaipur

Posted on December 26, 2017 by Sonali

I grew up in a regular middle class family in India. This was a time before India’s global expansion and sixth pay commission – simpler times! A yearly train trip to Nani house in Jaipur was our getaway, an occasional meal at the local restaurant a treat, movies in theatres were for special occasions and…
