Right after we PCS’d to Fort Bragg, I made a Fort Bragg Bucket List. I came up with more than 130 things that I wanted to do across the state. This is no surprise, North Carolina is a beautiful and unique place.
What I wasn’t prepared for, was how fast the Fayetteville section of my list filled up! Seriously, I found 30 things to do in Fay right off the bat and as time went on, I added even more to the list.

Instead of making a HUGE Fayetteville section on my bucket list, I decided to make a separate Fayetteville bucket list. I even made separate sections for restaurants to try and events to go to!

Fayetteville has so much to offer and I plan on using this summer to explore more of America’s hometown and mark some more things off of our list!

As you can see, there is no shortage of things to do in Fayetteville, North Carolina.
We are guilty of using our summers and free time going home to visit family. However, I am making it a point to explore more of this city.
Making a Fayetteville bucket list was a first step in that direction and I can’t wait for all of the fun and adventures we’re going to have!
