There’s nothing better than a Local Bucket List to keep track of all your hometown events, goals, and to-dos!
Living in LA means there are always new places opening and new events happening, which means my bucket list will never be fully completed, but here it is as of September 2020.
Falling into a routine where you live is normal. It’s easy to overlook all the really cool things that your city has to offer. Whether its entertainment, historical, nature, or food, every place has something that makes it unique and special. I encourage you to Google or Pinterest search your own city (or cities nearby) and see what makes your city unique! Then, make your own list and start checking them off!!
