Yes, but only because I'm a hobby historian, and I think it would've been really cool to've existed during some of the periods I study. Though, being born in those times, it wouldn't have been half as interesting. So if I could visit that would be a lot better, I could nerd out and fully appreciate not only the great historic value of being there, but also the great strides our society has taken since these times.
I'd like to go back to the victorian era, and spend a while studying trades.
I'd like to visit the late medieval period, to examine the social structures.
I'd like to go to pre-roman Europe and learn the languages, to get accounts from the people who actually lived there at the time. So we could use first-person accounts of these peoples, rather than the propagandist Roman ones.
