I can’t believe the summer is already winding down and I really can’t believe that I’ll be celebrating my 30th birthday in 9 days! Where has the time gone?! Before the summer slips away, and before I turn the big 3-0, I want to share a few things I’ve learned during my 20’s. I’ll be publishing a few posts surrounding that topic leading up to my birthday and today, I want to start with sharing 20 things you should do in your 20’s.

Even though this list doesn’t apply to me because I’m well into my 30s, there are some tips that I can still use.
Can’t wait until you’re finally on the other side.
