Riding on the back of a moped at night along roads lit by streetlamps in Indonesia, grasping a large toaster-oven under one arm.

This is one of the things that will be going on my accidental bucket list. This is not the sky-diving, swimming-with-dolphins list of dreams I one day want enough money, influence and time to accomplish and then impress my friends with.

Instead, this is the list of beautiful, random occurrences that life throws at you unexpectedly, and of which I will one day be able to say “I’m glad and grateful that happened to me”.

For MC.
