What do you really want to do? What do you want to see?
What's worth working for? What's left on your list of things to do....?
Over the past few years, people from around the world, and a variety of ages, have shared their list of things to do, both at our original site and in the list below. Please post a comment at the bottom of the page to share your own - and let us know where you're from.
You can find some further ideas and inspiration here at our LATEST POSTS page - there we regularly post links and stories - and you might also enjoy the 2DO BEFORE I DIE book -- now in 9 languages -- there are over 70 selected stories of things people have done (stories originally submitted to the 2DO website), written by the people who did them, along with a host of ideas and graphics that might spark further thoughts and conversation as to what's really worth your time...
Thanks for stopping by,
Mike and Chris








I've got a lot of things to doe before I die. At the moment 180 things, but I want to reach the 1000.
See my website: http://www.deloopderdingen.tk/ (Dutch)
I started this website to support people to do the things they want to do, without sitting, waiting, wishing and hoping here in the Netherlands.
I'll translate my list as soon as possible (:
With love, Miep
