If you could spend a day with any historical figure, who would it be?

Question

I will be Virginia Woolf for me. Her innovative writing style, including stream-of-consciousness techniques, transformed modern literature. Spending a day with her could provide insights into her creative process and the challenges she faced as a pioneering woman writer in the early 20th century.

Also she was quite open about her struggles, and her views on feminism, society, and art could offer profound reflections on issues still relevant today.

I’d probably chill with Leonardo da Vinci and ask him how he managed to be good at literally everything 🎨🧠

Answer

Whoa, Anton Chekhov would be an amazing pick! I'd love to spend a day with Leonardo da Vinci personally. Can you imagine the conversations about art, science, inventions? Or maybe Teddy Roosevelt - his larger-than-life personality would make for some epic adventures and stories around the campfire. So many possibilities when you have all of human history to choose from!
