In Italy at the time of renaisance. I'd like to see the passing from the dark ages to the enlighted times of scientific discovery and arts.

You should probably look up your statements before you post. Medieval Greece was under Roman or as it's called, Byzantine (in other words Greek) control until the 15th century when the Ottomans conquest occured. There was a slight blip in the 7th century, when most of mainland Greece was occupied by Slavs, but the cities were still under Greek control.

I'd like to live in the postwar years, 1945 up to the early 70s.

It was a time of great prosperity, social stability, and probably the best lot that the common individual has ever had in all of history (at least in the West). Even in the developed world, places like Africa, the gap between the West and those countries was much smaller than it is today. Also there was a social atmosphere of increasing tolerance and social progress - things were moving forward, rather than backwards (even 'progressive' trends are now rather regressive, in the sense they tend to be exclusionary rather than inclusionary - the whole advent of the PC phenomena).

All in all it was a very jubilant and optimistic era that held alot of promise.

Ancient Greece maybe around the time they were doing drama theater  classical times or bronze age i dont know. it'll be cool to visit all. or Egypt. or both when Greeks and Egyptians were intermixing. that would be awesome, see what they called themselfs and what they really said, it'll be all be facts instead of what we assume now, dont know whats fact or fiction sometimes, we'll know the truth going back. I love that movie back to the future.. go in a car and go back in time. but be like a ghost so you can watch from the outside though so you wont get killed if you want to see a war. ha. oh and go in and see the alexandria library and watch archemides or socrates talk or work wow.
 
also i agree the future would be cool. i want to see how the world will end. i always thought humans would be extinct for whatever reason like dinasours by then but the way people are treating this world who knows now.
oh and um see if Atlantis was real. ya that would be ah good thing.

It would be nice also to visit the Great Library in Alexandria. Who knows what great manuscripts, could someone find there?
