Below is a list of things I’d like to do before I die. If God decides to cut my life short, or to deny any of the wishes than it’s perfectly ok. Bold ones are items I’m currently working on, Stricken items are completed, and Both means that it’s an ever ongoing process that I’ve done, but is never really finished.

Wow, that is quite an ambitious list you’ve got there. May I suggest German as the language to learn fluently? It’s a fun language that is spoken by lots of people even here in the U.S. Everyone is always learning Spanish nowadays. So I try to peddle my native tongue
Just an FYI: It’s spelled “Birkenau” and the place is quite unsettling…
Good luck with your life goals.
