30 Things I want to do before I'm 30

Kia Ora friends!

I'm not sure if I'll ever post this but I've seen a few other blogs do the "30 things I want to do before I'm 30" challenge and wanted to give it a go. I'm kinda scared that I won't actually make it to 30 things, as a lot of the inspo on other blogs are things that I've already done or can do (like drive a manual, travel solo, learn how to cook/bake, learn about politics - I have a social science degree; this comes with the trade, etc). Hitting that age of 30 is also getting closer as we speak, I'm gonna be 28 in less than 2 months - sh*t. Let's see what I can achieve in the next 2 years. The idea will be to come back to this post in 2025 and see how much I've crossed off.


30 Things I want to do before I'm 30!


  1. Make a significant dent in my student loan (moving countries with this and then having interest is kinda scary bc you can't really buy a house with a student loan)

  2. Travel to more countries (I really want to go to Iceland, Mexico, and Canada)

  3. Get a cute doggo (a corgi called Waffles)

  4. Start a YouTube channel

  5. Save 100,0000

  6. Find my purpose in life (e.g., my career trajectory and have better working hours to work on my work-life balance)

  7. Get really good at baking and fancy icing techniques

  8. Do a lot more long-exposure photography (e.g., astro, sunrises, sunsets)

  9. Monetize my blog and social media platforms

  10. Get 10,000 Instagram followers

  11. Try out ghost-hunting

  12. "Astral Project" during a meditation session (I meditate on the regular but there's only a few times I've had an out of body experience during a session OR learn to lucid dream)

  13. Read more than 10 books a year

  14. Fine-tune my fashion style

  15. Become more wine-literate and do more wine-tasting

  16. Learn to manage my IBS symptoms a lot better

  17. Learn more Te Reo Maori (and learn where the macrons are on Wix or how to add them)

  18. Learn to paint pretty pictures

  19. Learn how to make a cocktail

  20. Learn how to make marshmallows, home-made chips (crisps), and replicate the hash brown from Maccas

  21. Take my partner Luke on a full roadie of my home land New Zealand

  22. Get another tattoo - something more meaningful than another basic b*tch one

  23. Get to level 50 in Pokemon Go (lol nerdy I know). I'm currently at level 42 (Sep, 2023)

  24. Do more driving around Melbourne to gain my confidence in driving here

  25. Give up caffeine (not altogether but for a significant period so I'm not so reliant on it)

  26. Learn how to garden better (most of my indoor house plants have survived thankfully and I'm learning a bit about what we have in our current garden now but would love to learn how to grow herbs and strawberries outside)

  27. Try out glamping + a spa self-care retreat/weekend

  28. Have a better skincare routine

  29. Learn more about AI technology

  30. Practice gratitude more regularly


So there you have it, 30 things I want to do before I am 30! What's yours?
