From My Bucket List
By Michael Saintsing — May 20, 2025 Writing Workshop
Written during a Speak Up writing community workshop.
See all the prompts and other writings from this session.
What is one item on your bucket list? Describe and explain why you want to do it.
I would like to travel overseas and tell people’s stories to others.
What I mean by this is get good at actual photography, not cell phone photography. Go to various small towns in Europe, take photos of the people I meet and their towns, write an extensive journal on it all and eventually turn it into a book.
This gives others, probably in the U.S., the opportunity to see, and a good understanding, of what others do in this huge world we live in.
I think this is a wonderful way to experience an item on my bucket list and also to share other people’s life experiences. I’d also say it’s my way of bonding with others around the world.
