Not really: You would live in the various lots that already exists in the various neighbourhoods. You would still use the same load screens to get to your stay place. The are lots of lots in the base game, but it's more dynamic if you own expansion and game packs with new locations.

oookay. but what about the "travels" part? are you saying this would be a destination pack? I dont like rabbit hole stuff.

Yeah...thats a big NO for me. It sounds like OP means we just pretend to travel somewhere new while being in frigging Willow Creek somewhere :s Yikes @DreamCytcher

I have a new idea that may fit somewhere between a stuff pack and a game pack: Travelling abroad. Not all of these are my own ideas. I've taken a lot from what I have been reading on forums. What I've seen people ask for on playthroughs and other sites.

New gameplay: Being able to rent rooms, homes or suites. Think Airbnb or Hotels. That type of short term stay. Similar to how you can rent a house in vacation worlds, you can set a lot trait that certain lots are rentals. You can also have rental homes. Basically "vacation anywhere."

New Aspiration: Well Travelled. Sims aren't tied to one home and want to live in all of the worlds. Similar to how remote workers can work anywhere, some people love to live anywhere. This would tie well with the upcoming "Island Living", and can use the world in "Get Together".

New NPC: The Concierge. Basically, an NPC who can book the rooms and potentially cleans, answers questions about the local attractions. You can use a computer or phone to interact or bring to your lot. Not necessarily tied to a desk, could use a tablet to run through their actions.

This would be a great pack to focus on build mode and decor, less on create-a-sim. New laptops. Maybe laptops that sit directly on laps when seated or lounging. Mean actions like wreck the place. Windows that open. Luggage and Tupperware bins used as storage containers.

You can have a review system. Where both places and "renters" are judged on the state the property is found in or left in.

Potential New objects: Single serve coffee pot. Tray table for eating. Meal cart.

New interactions: Takeout, delivery options. Leave a tip. Leave a review. Complain to owner/concierge. Ask for direction. Blog about travels. Write reviews. Send a postcard to family or friends.

I love these ideas!

@aka_moi YESSSS!!!! This would be amazing! And also you could own resorts (like in Sims 3) or airbnb's or go to like festivals and have beach parties. I really miss houseboats too...

So is that rabbit hole travels? Or what?

Love this idea

I don't get where is the "travel" thing you are saying, it's more like a Hotel pack and I definitely won't buy a pack that only allows my sim to stay at somewhere I'm always able to visit lol. Otherwise these ideas should come with a real vacation world.

I totaly agree!! there should also be a world with mountains, and places to ski/snowboad, go sleading, like mabe a ski resort aria to add to granite falls and Selvadora But make it so you can buy/own hotels, houseboats, B&Bs, etc anywhere!!

I want a new vacation spot thats like ski resort, and if you go skiing down this one dangerous hill you could hall into some caves, and that cave might or might not have a Yeti in it. Also playable yeti's.
