Laptop Traveler

I love to travel, even if it's just laptop traveling (modern version of the armchair traveler, guess). When my friend Penny posted this article 15 Romantic Getaways Around the World, of course I had to take a look. This in turn led to a little time on Pinterest (never mind that the laundry has to be taken in early so I can get it back today) which usually ends with some fun or interesting discovery on the habits of Pinners. I found some wonderful travel boards, not surprisingly, but I also found several bucket list boards. The bucket lists I found at first had a lot of travel items on them, not surprisingly. I liked the look of this one, and this one. I got some fun ideas of places I'd like to visit from both. But I found both of those from boards that had pinned the article about the romantic getaways so it made sense that travel would have been the focus there. I decided to just search "Bucket List" and see what I came up with. That's when the fun really started.
