FEATURED ITEMS

Crobs rode the waves lapping the shoreline of Kuta Beach on the Indonesian island of Bali to cross this item off his list; whilst his instructor seemed to be more interested in picking up the nearby sunbathing girls than actually offering him any form of tuiton.

#42: visit auschwitz

Crobs took a harrowing and humbling tour of the Auschwitz Museum and Auschwitz-Burkenau Concentration Camp to cross this item off his list, learning in great detail about the Nazi's 'Final Solution' regime during WWII and resultant atrocities.

Crobs enlisted the acquaintance of a fellow countryman on his quest to hunt for dragons on the island of Komodo in Indonesia, the only place in the world where these creatures can be sighted in the wild. What ensued was an expedition for the ages.

#93: Spend the night on a desert island

Crobs deliberately stranded himself on a Fijian tropical paradise to cross this item of the list. Whilst sipping cocktails in the sun sounds like bliss, however, his experience turned out to be far from it.

#146: get drunk on a vineyard tour
