Imagine you walked into the office tomorrow and were offered 1 month of additional paid holiday. For your taking in one go whenever you wanted it.
What would you do in that month?
Turn of the internet, ditch the smartphones, go on a road trip with my family.
Go find Susie Wong?
Drive round S America.
I would go backpacking around some Greek islands. In fact… that’s what we are going to do quite soon
Go find Susie Wong?
I had to do a google on that one. You need to move on… she is 79 now

My idea, too, but I am hesitating between a light aircraft and a motorcycle.
Packing three sets of underwear, two shirts, a credit card and exploring the perimeter of what can be reached VFR by a small SEP (Scottish islands, Maroc, west Africa, Mediterranean Sea, Turkey, Greece, Balkan, Ukraine, Baltic states, Scandinavia and back to west Europe).
I’d turn off my work email and phone, and at that point would be concerned (for my longer term finances) that I’d never go back!

Yes I agree but nostalgia can be womderful.
On a more probable note I think I would plan a month long journey to Australia and back just to prove I could do it at my age in a piston single. The old saying about nothing ventured nothing gained is so true.
