    ....which period would you choose?

    I would like to travel in the future, for example in 2300,  to see if the human has destroyed the Earth or if he has saved, and to know the futuristic technologies

    I wouldn't go to the future that's for sure, too much uncertainty. What if when you got there, the Earth was destroyed and there weren't any people?
    I think I'd go to the 20s, everyone was happy and dancing and drinking and having a wonderful time then!

      But what a dreadful future they had: The Great Depression, WWII.
      Or would you travel back to the present before any of that started to happen?

    I'd go back to the 50's. I could help my parents fall in love and make sure they have their first kiss at the Under the Sea dance. I could also make sure my dad knocks out the high school bully.

      That sounds a bit like 'Back to the Future'.

        That's right, my parents were born in the 50's.

        You're right. But it would be fun to have long hair and a head band, and walk around stoned and acting weird. People just don't do that sort of thing nowadays smile

    If I could I would go back to the past during the Chinese empire time when there were emperors, empresses and concubines etc. I would wish to be invisible though. If not i might be executed for intruding into the Forbidden city!

    I'd want to be a cowboy in the late 1800s or a knight in the Middle Ages!

    I'd go back to just before BP was attacked and make sure the idiots were put out of commision before they could hurt anyone!
