For me it would be Charles Dickens' England. And, I'd want to see the spectrum of sites, from the elegant and festive, to the seamier locales. I'd like to tag along with the Pickwick Club, on their travels, to see Marshalsea Debtors' prison where Little Dorrit visited her father ... and, I think Dickens' father did a stint there. I'd include the moors of Pip's Great Expectations, and the seaside that David Copperfield first knew.
I've enjoyed a few visits to current England, but I'd love to see how accurate my impressions are of his descriptions.
My favourite thing to watch is British historical dramas.
I fear we've both romanticized the time period though, and life was really hard, (well except for the wealthy)
I'd love to go to England in the flesh one day. But yeah, invisible would be great. And we wouldn't have to.. go ...in the pots under the bed.
