Polls: Travel

After vacating its headquarters due to the pandemic and employees working from home, the former headquarters of Goldman Sachs investment banking firm at 55 Broad Street in New York City is being turned into apartments.

Studio apartments are renting for US$4000 per month while 3-bedroom apartments are renting for US$10,000 per month.

Remember that New York City has excellent public transportation (subway trains and buses) so you don't need, nor want, a car.

For comparison, to buy a high-rise apartment in Manhattan will cost you at least US$1 million for a studio, up to US$50 million or more for a 2- or-3 bedroom unit.

Would you consider living here?

Please answer in the poll.

The last Motel 6 I stayed at was run by Indians and it looked like this...

Are they all gonna look like this now? This used to be a fairly good chain. My dad's cousins from Poland booked a tour across America, and the tour operator put everyone in Motel 6s.

Let's say you decided to move to another country where the native language was different from your own.

Would you learn the native language, and speak it, or would you continue to use your own language?

For example, let's say you're an English-speaking Canadian moving to Italy. Would you learn Italian?

Yes some of these options are jokes or semi jokes but I'm still interested to see how people answer this question.

What fictional country would you like to see?

I want to take another vacation coming up. I plan on giving a months notice. Right now it's been 1.5 months since my last vacation but it will be 2.5 months by the time it gets here. We have to use our vacation by a certain time or we automatically lose it. We still have time before that happens though. I still kind of feel ridiculous asking for vacation again. It kind of feels like I just got off of my last one in some ways. I feel like a lazy employee in some ways. Like my boss is going to go, he wants vacation again? Is this just ridiculous, over worked American culture that has me feeling bad for taking vacation time? I feel guilty putting in a request.

Any vehicle from as simple a bicycle to cars and boats along with even aircraft so long as you you are among the lucky few who happened to own one.

If you don't remember the exact number answer what you think is most likely to be true.
