First one!

So building a house would be one of those.

Happy 2025, Smartsheet Community! I have been using Smartsheet for 5 years with various companies, but have only been on the Community Site for 6-7 months.

One thing on my bucket list that I have not done yet was to write a book, and get it published. My goal is not to become a millionaire or make lots of money but to see something I created get published would be great. I have written a book before for my spouse, called "365 Reason to Love You." It was written by hand and never published. Due to the intended audience (Party of 1), it will not get published.

Once I get some coffee in me this morning, I will begin to map out that journey!

Happy 2025!! Whenever I think bucket list, my mind goes immediately to travel. There's so many places that I'd like to explore and be able to experience but if I had to choose one, right now I'd be looking at Japan.

My reasoning is that there's so many different areas in Japan (from the heavily populated urban areas to the rural countryside) but none of these areas seem to have a feeling like anywhere in the U.S., it's completely different. After watching several travel vloggers showcase their trips there, Japan seems very different from the U.S., and that culture shock would be super interesting to experience.

I have an ambitious list for this year to obtain both Control Center certifications. However, my top goal for the first half of this year is to study, sit for, and pass my PMP exam.

First of all, 2025 starts with WTF….get your heads out of the gutter! Wednesday Thursday Friday! I look at it more as

"Witness the Future"

This is going to be the year I think we all accomplish more than we have ever hope. Doing more with Smartsheet and achieving excellence.

My bucket list is always very long (Grows more every year!) I would love to go see Howard Hughes airplanes or go see the car "Tucker" Seeing these in person would be inspirational as there were created by visionaries of their time. Good reminder to always push the limits and never give up!

Happy 2025! My professional development goal is to get to Smartsheet Ambassador rank on my profile. Over the last couple months I was able to get Counselor and I want to get all the way to the top in 2025!

One of the most exciting items on my bucket list that I haven’t yet ticked off is a horseback riding tour through Patagonia in South America. 🏞️🐎 The idea of exploring these stunning natural wonders while riding brings a unique blend of adventure and tranquility. It’s a dream that combines my love for travel and horseback riding, offering not just a journey but an unforgettable experience that I’m eager to embark on in the coming year. New year, new adventures! 🌍✨

I love seeing all of the Bucket List Items! I am usually not big on "New Year Resolutions" but this year is to be different. Time to knuckle down, and set reminders to make sure I hold myself accountable for the amazing things I know I am capable of!

Travel is a major theme on my bucket list- I would love to travel internationally someday, or even visit more places in my home country that I haven't been to yet.

Another thing I would love to travel for- the Smartsheet ENGAGE conference later this year!

`What is an item on your bucket list that you haven’t done yet?`

Top of the list is going to Italy, but that will have to wait until a few other things are accomplished. I am, however, knocking Alaska off my bucket list this year. Woohoo! Going to go see my baby boy in May, who is stationed there.

Happy 2025!! I have been with Smartsheet as a user / Admin for about 3 years, however when I was laid off from the last place I lost all my badges so starting over…
My bucket list for this year, to get back into Smartsheet and be able to attend Engage!
For life bucket list, retire and travel the US in the RV!

Cheering on you @AKnight, I look forward to welcoming you to the Ambassadors group! 🤩

I have yet to go sky or scuba diving. I have always wanted to try that

I am fortunate to have knocked quite a few things off my bucket list through the years. One of the things still on there, though, is to visit Australia and New Zealand!

I love to travel. It has become a little harder with a 5-year-old and 3-year-old, but we try to travel when we can!

I have included a photo of my husband and, daughter, and me from the Space Needle (our son was still a little too young to join us on this business trip). I wonder why I was in Seattle… 😉

I'd really love to get my PMP certification finished off of my professional bucket list.

My favorite outdoor activity is paddleboarding with cycling and running occasionally thrown in to the mix. I've worked with Smartsheet for about 4 or 5 years but am just starting to be more active in the community. My favorite…
