Top 10 Sites I Wanna Visit Before I Reach 30

When I was in college, a professor said that we have to establish financial goals to reach before the big three-O. He's financial goal is to reach a savings of at least a million before he turns 30 - excluding the condo/car investments. I told myself then that I should be doing the same - set a financial goal for myself before I even reach 25 - just so ambitious! And so from the very first day of work, all I think about is how much portion of my income should I be allocating to my savings monthly just to reach my goal.

It wasn't easy. I have to sacrifice many things - my wants to buy new clothes, my wants to taste good food all the time, my wants to have the best and the newest gadgets, my wants to live a spoiled life, and many more. But one thing I ensure, despite of my sacrifices, is that I don't deprive myself to see the beauty of God's creation. I am on-track, and since I am not getting any younger, I made up a list of places I wanna visit before I reach 30. Just my way of saying and pushing myself to keep going - rewards will then just follow. 

Top 1. Maldives



Top 2. Mt. Fuji, Japan



Top 3. Great Wall of China, Beijing



Top 4. Great Ocean Road, Australia




Top 5. Eiffel Tower, Paris 



Top 6. Alps, Switzerland



Top 7. Bali, Indonesia



Top 8. The Grand Canyon



Top 9. Niagara Falls, Canada



Top 10. Phi-phi and Phuket Island, Thailand




I know. I have to be more creative in terms of earning pretty good money to be able to see all these places. I may not be able to see all, but I hope that before I reach 30, I will be able to cross-out at least 50% of my list. And yes, just a disclaimer, I still have the option to delay this. HAHA! :) P.S. I have many other dream destinations - but they are beyond attainable, so I limit my list to just 10 places.
