Life Goals
The weekend has gone by fast, and as we start a new week, I hope it is a progressive one for us. I can say it was a productive weekend for me, as I started reading a book I have wanted to read for a while now. As the apartment was less crowded and I also had a good rest from the work I had done during the week, and in preparation for the new week.
One of my life goals is travelling the world and seeing most of it ,other cultures and people. I do know travelling the world would be expensive as it involves a lot of tickets and hotels, so today I'll be writing about some of the places I'll like to visit or things I'll like to see before I die. In no particular order:
PYRAMIDS OF GIZA
One of the seven wonders of the world, it is actually the only one still standing. Located in northern Africa, Egypt to be specific. I have always marveled at the sight of it on the internet and in movies too. The manpower needed to erect such structures and in a desert too. Would really want to see it in person some day. And walk in to see the Pharaohs rumoured to be buried as mummies inside.
GREAT WALL OF CHINA
Would like to stand on the wall with a smile on my face shouting "Yes, I am here finally". Though I read most of the wall is in ruins, I'd still like to see this historic heritage site. Perhaps when I visit China.
NORTHERN LIGHTS
A beauty I must say. First time I read about it, I was wowed and to think it’s practically a natural phenomenon that is responsible for it and there are also southern lights too. A visit to the North of Norway close to the north pole and I'll catch a sight of one of the most beautiful views on earth (for me) on their darkest days.
GRAND CANYON
Located in Arizona, USA. This is a natural geographic wonder of rocks. Estimated to be millions of years old, an episode from Avatar the last airbender had cemented my desire to visit this tourist attraction.
TAJ MAHAL
Architecture at its best. A masterpiece of you ask me, and to think it was built in the 17th century makes it even more outstanding. Perhaps when I visit India, I could drop by to have a look and relish in the beauty of it.
STONEHENGE
Located in England. For stones to stand and arrange such that they form a pattern. There is more to this heritage site than meets the eye. Would really like to see for myself, and maybe try and push the standing rocks and see if they fall. Hehehe. Just kidding, like I have to power to push tons of weight.
STATUE OF LIBERTY
Located in New York, USA. I remember watching a video by Michael Jackson where he was high up on the statue dancing and singing. I’d like to climb high too and get a view of New York City.
MACHU PICCHU
A citadel located in Peru. Although a lot of it is in ruins, I’d still want to visit the elevated site someday and marvel at the ruins of perfection.
EIFFEL TOWER
The symbol of Paris – the city of love – where it is located in France. Despite being a popular monument and one of the most visited, it still hasn’t diminished my desire to see it for myself.
That’s all for this article, perhaps I’ll make another list as continuation, since I have not been able to exhaust the list. If like me you want to visit any of the aforementioned places, do make a comment to signify which and why.
Thank You For Reading 🖤🖤
Never heard of those lights before and I think I would love to check them out also. It's quite fascinating that they are as a result of nature and not man-made
