What had you achieved by 26?

I had travelled a lot around the world.
Passed my driving test in both car and motorbike.
Became a skydiving instructor and over 500 jumps.
I had my heart broken, and had fallen in love.
I had lost members of my family - but that's not an achievement.
I managed to get a job, go to uni and make some great friends.
Been skiing, been to some incredible sites and places of wonder around the world.
Broken several bones.
Taken over 500 flights.
Lived in more than 1 country.
Travelled by myself.
Shot at and caught in a civil war.
Sailed from Cyprus to the Greek islands.
Spent far too much money.
Racked up many 10s of thousands of pounds worth of debt.

However there's so much I still want to do - and some things I'll never get to do.

There's plenty of time to sleep around with lots of hot young girls, don't worry :)

... that debt sounds a bit steep thought... hope the paying off is going ok!
