I would love to go to India. And also someday, I want to have a family. That's my bucket-list.
Just do something that makes you stand out. Even if not everyone likes it, just do it.
Obviously I've always loved singing and performing, but I fell in love with songwriting and then I enjoyed doing that for other people and getting coached.
