50 Things To Do This Summer (AKA The Ultimate Summer To Do List)

I don’t know about you but I LOVE summer, ok I don’t know anyone who does’t love summer but I really really love it, I feel like I come alive more in the summer and I always feel much happier! It’s strange, I think in the winter it’s easy to fall into boring routines like throwing something warm and cosy on and watching TV most nights but not in the summer baby, oh no! The evenings are longer, the weather is (usually) far nicer and there’s a world of opportunities at our doorstep!

Me & James always make a list at the beginning of summer of everything we want to do in the approaching months, some are small, some are big but it’s always so nice to have something to refer back to when you have a free afternoon or weekend! I’ve been doing a bit of research around the net at other people’s summer to do lists too, it seems like it’s quite a popular thing and I thought it would be a really fun idea to get a compilation of everyone’s list together for a little inspiration for you lovely folk! Some things you might feel really excited to do, others not so much, that’s ok, the point is to just collect the things that are going to create great memories for you in the summer of 2014!
