Bora Bora -My #1 on my Bucket List

in travel •  7 years ago 

Bora bora has been for many years my number one place to visit. It stays there at number one on my bucket list.

You see, this place is so remote and away from civilization. It's so tiny that if you don't know where to look on the map you will miss it. I have been fascinated with islands, scavenging and survival mode ever since I watched the movie "Blue Lagoon" and "The return to the blue lagoon". I am fascinated with islands, because if you were to get stranded on an island, I wish it was on Bora Bora. When humans are faced with life and death situation then you act on your critical thinking and everything that you do must ensure your survival. You have to know how to collect food, build shelter, make use of whatever you find there and possibly make tools.
Well, of course that is not the reason I want to go to Bora Bora. I want to go there because that place is such a paradise. There is so much beauty there. I would be interested in seeing things off the beaten path. I have abused Google Earth in virtually exploring this place.
When I think about Bora Bora , I imagine that this place is quiet. I imagine you can only hear the sounds of the waves and birds singing. I dream of lounging in one of those over the water bungalows and sipping on a nice cold cocktail, breath in all the beauty of this place.

I have looked into packages and I almost went for my 30th birthday, but that was not meant to be. I am still dreaming of this place and I will never give up on dreaming to go there , until I go there.

Sure there's the Maldives as well- but for me it's Bora Bora where I want to go. Ya'll can donate steem after steem so I can make this dream come true. I even painted this yellow heart decoration and put it in my office as a reminder that that's where I want to go.

What is your bucket list? Where do you want to go?

I have so many more places where I would like to go.

Galapagos Islands is #2 on my bucket list.
Komodo Island is # 3 on my bucket list. I really want to see Komodo dragons in their own environment.

Please share your bucket list or places you have been.

The thing is - I really wanna go everywhere. I do.

I have to say tha bora bora is also well placed on my bucket list.. as matter of facts bora bora come from pora pora which means 1st born island (or somethign like that)..so let's keep in touch to find out which of us will be able to erase that from his list in first ^^

Deal.

And yes you are right, it does come from pora pora. :) I think I could go soon, BUT I want to make it very special. I want it to be for a honey moon, or for a landmark in my life, I don't wanna go and spend 10k for a week just because I want to go to Bora Bora. It has to be special, memorable and a once in a life time experience. Unless I win the lotto, then change of plans . ha ha yeah.. stay in touch and let's see who gets there first. If you do, I want sand and a rock from there. If I do, then I will do the same for you.

Cool, I accept. I have applied 2 weeks ago for a position over there.. I probably not get any answer but if i do.... and less probably.. if I get the job...I ll send you everything you want ^^

Wow...you applied for a position there? What job?
It actually doesn't really matter. I hope you get it and then I'm going to hold you to your promise. haha "send you everything you want" woot. Thanks a bunch. I hope you get the position.

some kind of marketing position in a luxury hotel...but still not any news from them...seems jeopardised ^^.

Don't lose hope and keep applying. I once applied for FBI. ;)

FBI sounds secret and serious ^^... i like it ;-)
