I’m bold! I just finished a weekend of ‘cross-country’ skiing in the rocky mountains. There wasn’t much ‘cross’ about it – either all up or all down! So much fun, but scary at the same time!

I’M BOLD! About a lot of things. I stayed in a tree house & flew a powered hang glider in Hana, Maui. – I painted my studio/second bedroom red on all walls & ceiling & affixed a large abstract art painting to the ceiling – I painted a 7 foot mandala over our bed – I hiked to Gold Rush graveyards in Alaska – I cooked (several times, different national cuisines) a 5-course dinner for 100 WWII re-enactors at Camp Roberts, CA – I climbed the great castillo pyramid at Chichenitza. – I married a man 7 years younger than me! I’M BOLD!
Mary says
I’m Bold!
I accepted a job 2000 miles away from home, family, friends, or anything familiar. Now almost 2 years later, I’m about to move back because of a new/better opportunity, but I’m so glad I took this risk and got to experience life on the west coast, make some amazing friends, and enjoy all the finds on CL for the greater Los Angeles area.
Helen says
I’M BOLD!
I’ve walked over hot coals, spent time at Burning Man, gotten engaged to the most amazing man on Earth after only knowing him three months, and painted our library red.
Margo says
I’m bold!
When I was 18 I decided I’d like to live in Alaska for the summer so I found myself a job and a place to live and packed my bags up and moved away from everyone I knew. It was awesome and I’m so glad I had the faith in myself to take such a big leap!
Lizzie says
I’m BOLD… but not today… feeling under-the-weather. Could use some BOLD art to make me feel better :)
Mandy says
I’M BOLD!
When I was studying abroad in Paris two summers ago, my friends and I spent a day at the Louvre. Upon leaving, we were walking across the Seine and while on the bridge I spied a guy who looked JUST like Jason Biggs. We were all still jet-lagged and giggling like schoolgirls trying to figure out whether or not it was him. We actually passed by before I turned around, marched back, and inquired “Excuse me, are you Jason Biggs?” I’m glad I did, because I was right! He was super nice and his fabulous, gracious wife took a group picture of us with him!
Janay says
I’m bold and recently chopped off my hair that was past my shoulder blades to something a bit longer than a pixie cut after thinking about it for a few hours. :]
Emily says
I’m Bold! And loving the House and Birds print. An example of my boldness? Traveling to Paris with my then-boyfriend-now-husband only 2 months after starting our relationship!

The boldest thing I’ve ever done is backpacking through the mountains of Colorado for a week- really roughing it- none of that sissy camping stuff!

I’M BOLD…

Laura says
I’m bold!
Natalia says
I’M BOLD!
I left a great job in Georgia to move to Massachusetts with no job lined up, and to go from a long-distance relationship to moving in with my boyfriend – so, really, two big extremes. It was a pretty bold move for me, considering I was really comfortable in my line of work, and used to be a bit of a commitment-phobe. I’m happy to say we’re doing really well, and I found a job after just a week of searching!
Amanda E says
I’m bold! I’ve gone skydiving, chopped off all my hair, and quit a job that wasn’t making me happy with the hope I’d find something better. Thankfully, I did. :)

I once stole a golf cart with a celebrity’s (Chevy Chase’s) daughter! She was my friend’s cousin’s friend and we were all on vacation in 8th grade – we thought we were pretty bold!

Asheley says
I’M BOLD!!
Invited a guy that I’d met at a wedding and had been emailing & talking on the phone (’cause he lived several states away) to come visit. He did, which maybe makes him bolder. We will celebrate our 4 year anniversary this May.
Ann says
IM BOLD! I moved across the country with my now fiance after only dating for 7 months! Everyone said we were crazy! Crazy and in love! We have been together now for 5 years and couldnt be happier! We cannot wait to exchange our vows in September 2012.
Linda says
I’m BOLD. I painted my living room purple, eggplant purple, and we all love it! Very rich and classy.
Sarah S says
I’m Bold – but not really. somehow having kids kind of took some of the boldness out of me. Wait- does having two kids make me bold? I THINK SO.
Clarissa says
I’M BOLD!
Paragliding off a cliff near the Swiss Alps was probably my boldest move to date.
