25 Things to Do By the Time You’re 25
Facing your quarter-life crisis or in your early 20’s? Here are 25 awesome things to do by the time you’re 25.
By Tim Mousseau
This list is a set of recommendations. You do not have to do them. Most of you won’t. That is okay. But I share these because they are a few of the most memorable things I have done that have helped me become a better man.
Sometimes I found these out myself, and sometimes, life slapped me in the face with them like a crab on a boat in an Alaskan storm. They all managed to claw their way onto my face and stick.

1. Travel. No this does not mean travel all over the world. I could give a damn whether you go two towns over or to every country in the entire world. Make time, however, to see new parts of the world. Whether it is an hour drive, or it takes you six days, two ferries and one llama ride to get there. Allow yourself to go somewhere you haven’t been. Have a plan. Don’t have a plan. Stay in luxury or slum it up. How you travel depends on your circumstances. But travel. And for gods sake, stop posting about it, put down your damn phone and enjoy the sunset because it is there. See the world without a “filter.”
