I would move to Britain, and in my childhood, I would turn the clock to the 1940s and throng the bookstores for fresh new releases of Famous Five, Secret Seven and Mystery series and perhaps try and sneak into Enid Blyton’s house with ham sandwiches and marmalade and coerce an autograph. In my adolescence, I would love to be in Victorian England traversing the foggy London in horse drawn carriages and pick Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s brain for a juicy murder mystery. I would love to spend my silver years in the 18th century England, attending live shows of Hamlet, Othello and Macbeth and a chance a glance upon Shakespeare himself.
