Zak’s Bucket List

On the 9th of March 2016, I decided to create a list of all the things I want to do in my life.

Sometimes people ask me if they can steal some ideas from it… I say go ahead. Just don’t copy and paste it… I mean you can’t possibly want to do the exact same things I’m gonna do, can you?
