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.
My son asked me this yesterday. Japan.
A tour through the Nordic countries.
I’ve only ever seen Sweden from the highway from Malmö to Stockholm to get to a boat to Estonia in time, and only saw bits of the harbor in Helsinki during that trip. I’d love to take more time to explore Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland.
Yup, if the Arctic is fully booked, why not to go to Norway 😁
1996
Vienna. The opera season this year couldn’t be better, I’d stay the year and go every night.
Fly to Frankfurt for fairly cheap. Take the train to Munich and the train to Vienna from there and attend at least a few. Get a cheaper “stay” in the outer districts that are still connected via train. Check if there is offers on “Groupon” for it potentially. Could probably make it with 2k/2.5k
I’d like to see Japan deeply. I’d go all the way across the country and make sure to stay at rural spots along the way to enjoy the stillness between cities.
Alpha Centauri
Tokyo. Splurge in Akihabara and eat some authentic ramen.
There’s a place out in Washington State called Dirtfish. They call it a “rally school”. For a bunch of money they’ll give you a kickass Subaru and let you tear around a dirt track for a few days. Looks awesome.
Earth.
Like, the whole fucking thing more or less.
Might take me the rest of my life and I still won’t see it all, but if money is no object…
Amtrak does the train equivalent of a cruise liner, where you spend about half a month on a sleeper car travelling all over America. It’s cheaper than an actual cruise line, and more importantly I think trains are cool.
Edit: forgot about the unlimited money. I guess I would pay to replace all the rails in north america first so I have a smooth ride the whole time.
I’m assuming you’re talking about the All American, as that’s the main one I could find. About fifteen days, and $2400. Which is about as much as a three to five day cruise, depending on cruiseline.
Looks like you’re staying at pretty nice hotels in places like SF, NYC and LA. It looks like it’s all included, which isn’t bad at all.
That sounds awesome, and isn’t that terribly expensive, honestly. My wife and I went on a similar route road trip for our honeymoon a few years ago and it was in that same ballpark of cost, between car rental, hotels, and other expenses.
It looks like you’ll still be needing to pay for hotels for the nights you aren’t traveling. Still, not bad especially since you don’t have to deal with the hassle of driving. You just get on the train, sleep, and just appear at the next location.
They say in the What’s Included section that they cover 8 nights of hotels!
Oh, damn. OK. That’s a really good price then!
Yep. That one.
If money is no object you can buy your own custom-built private car and pay Amtrak to pull it on their lines.
two cars, one for
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.
Money is no object?
Alpha Centauri. Build a spacious and comfortable Orion Drive ship for me and a few thousand of my best friends to go on a nice long trip.
I was going to say Mars, just to get there before fElon, but Alpha Centauri sounds nice!
I would love to visit New Zealand. I’m a canuk and I hear they are like a better weather version of my country…I’ve also never met a kiwi that wasn’t a stand up person.
If money were no object, I’d book a permanent vacation to New Zealand. But a vacation into the Sun has a certain appeal too.
e: love your username btw
Italian wine tour for a couple of months
