What Do You Want to do Before You Die is an incredible project by two people who ask people what they want to do before they die and take a polaroid of them as they’re saying it. Then, the person writes it on the picture and they post it on their website. I suggest you read the about page because it explains it better than I do!

That’s a really cool project! So glad you posted this Emily, thank you.
The idea that the ability to even answer that question is to some extent a matter of privilege, that only with some level of security can you think beyond the next day and dream of the future really makes you stop and feel ridiculously lucky.
i know right? it fascinates me that almost all of the people from india’s answers were “i want to eat” and “i want to study”. also, i loved the one where he says “i want you to take my photo”. i feel like he’s free.
That is a really fascinating project. It was interesting to see the wide range of things that people want to do before they die.
Thank you for sharing this
my favorite one is the little girl who said ‘KICK A MONSTER’ so cute.
