11."Everyone should experience a spontaneous adventure that pushes their comfort zone and inspires growth."

13."Trying something foodwise you've not tried before, and it ended up being something so phenomenal that you'd spend time searching to replicate it but never capturing that same magic again."

14.And finally, "Do something that absolutely terrifies you. Something that makes you quake in your shoes. I hate heights. I went bungee jumping two years ago, and it was insane. It was hard to throw myself off, but I'm glad I did it. Knowing something scares you, and doing it anyway is phenomenal for your confidence and helps you know you can do things you didn't think you could."
