I loved the description of your journeys. I’d be right behind you, I hope. I think it would be amazing to not have to worry about health or death. So many foods to try. So many different cultures to explore. I might get bored but it would be a while.

If I wasn’t on my fourth generous glass of Merlot you might have received a vaguely engaging and comprehensive reply!

I suppose if I was Mensa material or an inventor or really curious about life and the future of mankind and it’s future discoveries or impending death knell …

But … on the other hand as a simple soul I’d either die of boredom or die of high blood pressure trying to get my head around advances in technology.
I’d be replaced by AI.

I’d get incredibly lonely missing all the people who weren’t blessed/cursed with immortality.

I’d be ultra miffed unless my darling was also granted that same immortality :sparkling_heart:

I actually believe that I am immortal…
:sunglasses:
I’m still here after 73 years, and those that die before me will never know if I was right, and those that outlive me won’t be able to tell me I was wrong…

There’s a novel by Natalie Babbet called Tuck Everlasting that addresses this question…it’s a beautifully written story.

Living forever isn’t something I’d choose.
