The Maldives.
Mount Blue Sky, Colorado. Home of the highest elevation optical astronomical observatory who's operators I share a language with
Probably any other country where I could get a doctor to take a look at my heart condition without having to take out a loan against my house to pay for it.
If money was no object: Las Vegas!
I'd play all the games for free and win all the money. I'd become a millionaire in a week. :)
New Zeeland. But not by plane - by ship! I hate flying, but half around the globe on a small luxury cruise ship or yacht would be nice.
Road trip across Canada, coast to coast. Just before starting it though I’d fly to the Yukon.
Did something a little bit similar last fall - Vancouver to Vancouver Island, through BC over the Rockies to Edmonton. Then flight to Montreal and up to Saguenay, down to the cantons de l"est, back to Montreal.
The whole cross country thing is on the list, bit will have to wait. This country is big...
That sounds amazing!
I’m very lucky - Grew up in the GTA, went to Uni in Halifax and lived on Vancouver Island for 8 years. I’ve taken the train across, but I’d really love to drive it and really enjoy all the bits in the middle. So I’ve seen lots and explored local areas where I’ve lived, I’m really just missing NFLD.
I live in the UK now (and oddly closer to my Uni than I was out west) so the plan would be to buy a car out west, and sell it out East.
novosibirsk russia
Super expensive to travel there and looks like some nice architecture. Just need to hire a team of security specialists.
Ticket prices $36,000 usd round trip from Minnesota. First class.
Malta I have been wanting to see the hypogeum for a while.
I would go to Freemoneyland and get free money
I'd just rent a cabin in a nearby mountain.
I don't see the appeal in going far away from vacation.
Alpha Centauri
Rowing in sweden. Go there by bike.
Well if money is no object then a world tour that lasts the rest of my life, thanks (or if I can use this magic purse on behalf of others instead, stay home and buy up all the world's debt, sponsor a jubilee year.)
Alpha Centauri system. I'd keep spending money until we got a working fusion reactor and Alcubierre Drive, open source the designs, and go check that shit out.
I probably wouldn't go much further than a couple of hours drive. The mindset of travelling half the world "just cuz we can" has become unpleasant.
The sun.
I'd donate alot to my local makerspace then take unpaid leave for a good while and just make things. If I had to travel i would probably go to Germany to see a few friends, it's been too long.
Right where I am.
Because if money were no object I'd definitely not be living in this shithole country.
1996
So you can observe Mankind?
Nowhere probably. I'm not traveling because I can't afford to but rather because I'm not interested to.
Disappointed but unsurprised to see nobody acknowledging that there might be reasons other than money for not flying business class to the other end of the world.
