Describe Something you Have always Wanted to do but Have not Done Yet- Ielts Cue Card

And explain why you have not done it yet.

Sample Answer 

Trying new things is never an easy feat, and the pursuit of an activity you’ve never done before is bound to give you the jitters and can cause cold feet. However, knowing that trying new things enriches life experiences, one should go for it and try to reach that aim. What could be better than stepping outside of your comfort zone?

As an adrenaline junkie, I’ve always been interested in attempting new activities that give me an adrenaline rush and give me a new perspective on life. One of the adventurous sports on my bucket list is bungee jumping. I’ve always wanted to participate in this sports activity since it would allow me to overcome and conquer my fear of heights and let me live life on the edge. The sport is fascinating and worth attempting as it offers just the right amount of danger and excitement. Furthermore, diving into the vast space will be an exhilarating way to feed my adventurous spirit.

Well, very few spots in the Northern region of my country are popular for offering the highest bungee jumping experience to adventure seekers. So, I planned to try this ultimate exciting sport during my vacation last year; however, the pandemic intervened and ruined my plans. But now, I’ve decided to visit the north and enjoy the adrenaline rush during bungee jumping once the pandemic gets over, travel restrictions are lifted, and life gets back to normal.
