Take a World Cruise

What better travel experience than to take a cruise around the world? While these cruises can be pricey, you’ll have the opportunity to sail spectacular waters, explore dozen of ports and spend the night in foreign places. What else can you ask for?

Send a Message in a Bottle

When you were younger, how many times did you wonder how cool it would be to discover a message in a bottle? Now, think about how amazing it would be to throw a bottle with your own personal message inside into an endless body of water and someone discover it years later? You can even leave your address in the message. Maybe, one day, someone will send a message back.

Take a Picture Everyday for a Year

How many times have you said you should have caught that moment on camera? Take a picture everyday for a year with family, friends, pets, even strangers. Then, at the end of the year, create a photo collage and revisit all those awesome memories.
