Funny I had the same comparison for $3500. We are 10+ years from a virtual vacation or augmented staycation could deliver similar benefits.



We're not 10+ years from traveling a foreign country, meeting people completely different from yourself, becoming enmeshed socialy in their lives, developing relationships with them (if only for a brief time), etc.

Give me a break.

What these will do is safe us from the dystopia we're creating outside our own doors, which isn't solving the problem, just ignoring it.


Vacations in 10+ years... It will be hard for AR to beat an actual beach holiday in Finland to be honest.
