If you could travel in time, what country and century would you choose? Would you be more interested in travelling into the future or the past? As for me, I'd be happy to see the 18 or 19th century (or even more recent times) with my own eyes. Not sure if I could live there for my entire life but staying there for a couple weeks, talking with people and seeing their way of life would be awesome.

If you could travel through time, which country and century would you choose? Would you be more interested in traveling to the future or the past? As for me, I’d love to see the 18th or 19th century (or even more recent times) with my own eyes. I’m not sure if I could live there my entire life, but staying for a couple of weeks, talking to people, and observing their way of life would be amazing.

Tip: Use "travel through time" instead of "travel in time" for a more natural phrasing. Also, talking to people is more common than talking with people in this context.

Hi Mira. I always thought it would be cool to live the 80's as an adult, any country really. Would traveling also be an option? Cheers!

Great :) One thing to note is that we tend to use 'As for me' when we are highlighting our own opinion in contrast to someone else's, or drawing attention to yours in a group conversation. It's like saying, 'When it comes to me ...' As you are the only one answering the question, I wouldn't use it here.
