'If you had unlimited funds, where would you go for a getaway?'
This falls in line with a question like 'if you won the lottery, what would you do with the money?'. Because who has time for an ideal getaway if you have responsibilities at home? Of course, it all depends on your definition of getaway. Is it a weekends away? Is it a week, or month away?
Thinking of a getaway, one might think of going to a far distant country. For Americans, I think that most of us would contemplate a getaway to European countries. I know I do. I think of places like Germany, Spain, and Italy. And why not? You see wondrous photos and video of breathtaking scenery in commercials and movies. And, to paraphrase Eddie Izzard, it's where the history comes from! There is just so much cool stuff to see in all the different countries. Why would you not want to experience something like that?
However, there are tons of places to go in the United States. Lots of sights and sounds to experience. And it includes less travel time. You can also include the countries to the north and south if you so choose. I think that there are tons of cool places in Canada that you can visit. I went to Toronto with my family when I was in high school. I remember enjoying it, but I think that as an adult, you would enjoy it even more. I suppose the same goes for any place that I have been to when I was a kid. We took a family road trip when I was in first grade. We went from Michigan to California. We made plenty of stops along the way that I don't think I fully appreciated. Sure, I remember being in Yellowstone, but did I fully grasp the vastness and openness of the park? Most definitely not.
I suppose if I had my way, I would try to find a way to split an ideal getaway. Spend time in both the U.S. and Europe. You could spend a month in each country of Europe or each state in America and still not see everything that each place has to offer. You would just have to make up an itinerary and priority of each place.
