My Bucket List

Personal Achievements:

• learn to play the piano - started online lessons with C in September 2021, ongoing, took a break from July 2022 to January 2023 when I resumed face to face lessons with J
• learn to speak Italian - started May 2020 using the Duolingo App, ongoing
• improve my fitness - starting June 2022 with a target of being fit enough to walk with the Ramblers or similar, ongoing
• complete a course - this still has to be decided and may be an OU course, an A level, or maybe continue with the photography degree. I'm wanting something that stretches my mind and pushes me out of my comfort zone.
• take up, or resume, a skill/craft - this still has to be decided
