If you had the money, the ability, the time and no travel restrictions due to Covid, where would you travel to right now?

Asked by jca2 (16268points) October 11th, 2020

If money were not an object, and you had the time (time off from work, or not having to deal with school schedules or any thing) and there were no travel restrictions due to Covid, where would you travel to right now? Or are you not into traveling?

I thought of this last night watching a video of a Metallica concert which was from June 2019, filmed at Slane Castle in Meath, Ireland. I thought of how last summer, I got passports for me and my daughter, and would have traveled to Scotland as per her wishes but didn’t get the passports early enough to plan a trip before school started in September 2019. Then with winter and school vacations, I figured we’d go in summer, 2020. Then came the Covid. Watching the concert made me think about how I would love, right now, to go to Ireland or Scotland, or both. I’ve been to Ireland before but never Scotland. I’d also love to go to California and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and Canada.

Probably somewhere in the middle east, because I always wanted to find out how it feels to be violently beheaded.

If I left today I would head to the Adriatic to sail around the eastern coast and see the Roman ruins. Croatia and Slovenia are just two of the places which look fantastic in photos I’ve seen.

If you ask again in an hour, I’ll have a different favorite in mind.

I’d like to revisit Scotland and England. But I’d also be happy to go back to New England and maybe just never leave.

Costa Rica. It’s far away and warm, which sounds good after all the stress and with the cold season starting here. I would explore the jungle and spend a lot of time in hammocks, eating banana bread or sipping milkshakes. I’d bring my husband and dog, who’ve never been. In fact, since money is not an issue, I might invite some friends or family members to meet us for part of the time. I’d want to read novels by the ocean, ride horses, go zip-lining and rafting, perhaps explore a cave or two.

I hope you do get to go to Scotland soon. I only went for a few days many years ago, but I really enjoyed it.

I would go to a well stocked underground shelter. For a year or more.

Spain, Italy, Japan, and then Australia. All in one year.

I’ll stay home in my little berg here. Not much into travel these days. Anyway, if you’ve seen one Taj, you’ve seen Mahal, as my old pappy used to say.

I’d go to Egypt so I could eat pizza while looking at the pyramids.

Winter is setting in now so I’d like to go to the Southern hemisphere. I’d visit some places in Australia and New Zealand. Maybe visit Spaceport, Rocket Lab Complex 1 in New Zealand.

If I were limited to domestic travel I’d like to go the west coast and visit several folks from here. There are quite a few I’d enjoy meeting.

I’ve always wanted to take @ragingloli‘s head on a busking holiday to Proxima Centauri.

Costa Rica. I’d love to be able to go from the ocean to the mountains all in the same day.

I wouldn’t travel with COVID-19 going on, even if travel restrictions were lifted. If we assume it went away and all other parameters were true, there’s a few places near the top of my bucket list: Italy (and Sardinia), Spain and Greece. I’d also love to visit New Zealand for a long vacation. Finally, staying in one of these would be incredible.
