Bucket List Bruce

I want to start a business that I can run completely online from anywhere in the world. It needs to be a business that provides real value to my customers.

My max weight was around 300 pounds and my goal is to maintain a weight of around 180.

I'm taking the pokemon catch phrase literally and I'm catching them all.

My favorite place to be is in Japan and I love interacting with locals there so I want to become fluent in Japanese to meet as many new people as possible.

A matsuri is a Japanese festival held for many different reasons. They feature street food, vendors, and parades. I was able to help carry the mikoshi (a portable shrine carried by a large group of people) in a matsuri.

I have a few tattoos of my own and the process is very interesting, so I decided to learn to do it myself.

Solar eclipses are very rare and surreal. I've been lucky enough to see two of them in person.

I didn't need to travel to the Arctic Circle; the lights came to me.

All I can say is that it was very emotional experience. You can read more about it in the article if you're interested.

Gunkanjima, known as Hashima to most Japanese people, is an island that used to be a densely packed mining town that was closed in 1974.

At one point in college I found out that you could go through the parts of the town that were abandoned after the Tsunami and nuclear disaster. Since then I’ve been very interested in going there myself.

Puffer fish, known as "fugu" in Japan, is a dish that can kill you if not prepared properly.

I've always wanted to go to see one of the most uniquely Japanese combat sports in person.

Let's be honest, digital nomad content brought me here.
