My World Tour

Back in 1999 when I was 13 or 14 I wrote a list in my diary and called it 'My World Tour'. It has 86 places, mainly countries or states that I obviously was planning on visiting in my life. I am so glad I found it last summer. Some of the places that made it onto my list I have been to! Some I still want to visit and others I'm surprised made it on the list in the first place.

So now that I look closely I have used some rather creative numbering at a couple of points so there aren't actually 86 places there but close enough! I was tempted to leave my spelling the same but some of it was a little interesting.

I've obviously had the travel bug for a while.
