I don’t necessarily mean as a society as I’m sure in many ways economically the world has it better than ever before but more just personally. Do you love how the world is or would you prefer to go back to a pre-social media, pre-mobile phone, pre-Ed Woodward world?
For me the last great year to be alive was 2005. After that it seemed that the world changed for the worse. If you had a time machine, when would you go back to? Or is 2022 the best time to be alive?

What was the best time to be alive?

Best time to be alive is probably 5 seconds after the doc pronounces you dead

Actually any time between the pronouncement and the moment the embalmer gets started.

Travelling anywhere without Google maps was so much more difficult. Either carrying a map everywhere or taking wrong turns and asking for directions.. +1 for modern tech making life better
----------------------------------------------------------------------
There's fun in getting lost!
Plus Google maps took me down a one way street across the US/Canada border at Point Roberts into a bunch of power trippy TSA agents

Haha! I've heard this story before from someone else. They were on their way to a festival in another province with lots of 'supplies'. Caants nearly ended up in an American prison

Should maybe have saved the supplies until they got to the festival.
Lots of places like that between Quebec and U.S.
There's a town where the border goes through the town library.

Travelling in the 90s... taking money out is a nightmare, less accessibility to most locations, not as easy to find accommodation or recommendations, in instances of emergency you are literally stuck in foreign countries all by yourself...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pretty sure you’d have been able to buy a lonely planet around then, you’d be fine, bloody drama queen
----------------------------------------------------------------------
bused and hitchhiked all over Western Europe and N.America in the late 70s. No problems
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ahh yes, those well known, highly volatile travel routes.

Feel like the travelling stories about everything going wrong are the most memorable and character building anyway
----------------------------------------------------------------------
To an extent, most those stories have a safety net helped with the globalisation of the world.
