Yes. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Traveling in real life is expensive Just a plane ticket alone can cost $$$. Some of us can't do so ever, but I think for most people it's a rare occurrence. But a $20-40 pack for the sims is something we can easily afford. Let us travel in the fantasy stories we tell ourselves with the Sims, please. I can't imagine that won't pay off for you. I'd also say the same about adding any non-American based worlds to the game for the same reason.
And as to the "Easy Bake oven for kids skills, we've had that in prior Sims games. It would be cool to have it again.
