1/ Your travelling: where would you like to go?
I'd like to revisit the plaes I've been to already: Toronto and southern Ontario, Richmond and Virginia, New York City and environs. This time, though, I'd spend more time in these places, and venture away from the major haunts to experience different neighbourhoods, relatively minor and often overlooked but good attractions (I regret not seeing New York City's Cloisters, for example), and take day trips into the hinterlands beyond.
2/ At what point will you be able to say your life is complete?
I won't, I don't think. I'll be able to complete tasks, but I suspect that faster than I complete them new ones will appear.
3/ Ultimately, what do you seek?
Completion. (Hey, I can be a hypocrite, too.)
Seriously now, I'd just like to feel that I've given a good showing in as many different areas of my life (private and public, personal and professional, et cetera) as possible.
4/ How would you like the world to remember you when you pass on? Or does it really matter?
It matters that the world (or parts thereof) remember me. I'm not sure about the details, but I want to be remembered fondly.
5/ "What would you attempt to do, if you knew you could not fail?" (It's amazing what the answers to this reveal about you...)
I don't doubt that they would be revelatory.
I suppose I'd try to become a worldly academic with an extensive and critically acclaimed body of work, fiction and non-fiction. For starters. If I knew I couldn't fail, well, I suppose I'd sooner or later try everything.
