10 Travel Instagrammers You Need To Be Following
MLD Spot

Travel inspiration is important for a vagabond heart. There are days when household duties and job responsibilities take precedent over jumping on the next plane to Cabo or the Maldives. Maybe for some people these ties haven't allowed them to pack a bag on a whim, but they hope to do so in the future. Seeing pictures and hearing stories of lush tropic rainforests and dry Sahara deserts helps to remind us all that there is more to see than our bedroom's four walls and certainly gives us more places to put on our bucket lists. One of the most accessible ways to this jet setting inspiration is through Instagram accounts of people who travel for a living, take stunning pictures of their adventures, and post them for the world to see. These are 10 Instagrammer's that will give you a real case of wanderlust.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
