Bill Nye’s Bucket List Dream
According to Entertainment Tonight’s red carpet interview, Bill Nye revealed that the Galápagos Islands remain at the top of his travel wish list. He told the interviewer, “I want to go to the Galapagos Islands.” He explained that he has never visited the destination, even though he has studied and written about it.
The science educator said the location interests him because “that’s where evolution was really discovered and dialed in” by Charles Darwin. He also mentioned Alfred Wallace during the conversation before returning to his own travel goal.
When the interviewer suggested he “manifest” the trip, Bill Nye laughed and agreed. He responded, “That’s what the kids do. They don’t buy a ticket and go there. They manifest it.” He later added, “Manifest like crazy.”
