This is My World Events. It's basically an online events calendar with a personal touch - places and events we've been to or would love to go to one day, with all the information we think we might need to go out and do it. Think of it as planning in advance if you will, with an extremely optimistic bucket list. But hey, you don't get anywhere if you don't dream big, right?

We've broken the events down into categories, based broadly on our personal preferences and they types of things we enjoy, with a surplus category we've thrown in called Curious, which is where we'll stick anything that doesn't fit in anywhere else.

We hope the place hangs together reasonably well and makes finding stuff easy enough, but there is a search box too, just in case. As to who we are, we're Martin and Yvonne, the M and Y in MY World Events - you see what we did there??
