A survey of 2,000 people by the National Lottery placed seeing the aurora borealis natural phenomenon above any other personal desire.
Personal achievements also featured high on the list, with retiring comfortably featuring in second place.

Andy Carter, a winners' adviser for the National Lottery, said: 'Everyone has their special bucket list of dreams but we have seen a shift amongst our winners in recent years.
'It is now less about owning a fleet of cars or getting a swimming pool installed and more about shared experiences with family and friends.
'It's gone from the tangible to the memorable.
'Fifteen years ago, winners often bought top-of-the-range cars, holiday homes and expensive designer handbags but now we hear many more tales of winners taking groups of 20 or more friends and family on holiday.
'Gifting and sharing memorable moments brings a great deal of happiness to our winners so it is no surprise to see these feature on the nation's bucket list.'
英國國家彩券的顧問 Andy Carter 說道：「十五年前，人們追求開豪華名車、住黃金地段度假別墅和昂貴設計師名牌包，然而近幾年來，人們不再像以往追求頂級跑車或是高級游泳池等奢侈品，反而渴望製造更多與家人、朋友的共同回憶。與人分享美好得事物確實為那些頭彩幸運兒帶來更真實的快樂，所以這樣的調查結果一點也令人不意外。」
