Yes! While it does give me wanderlust, I love reading about new places. I especially love any books set in England/Ireland/Scotland. Those are the three places I would love to visit and I think it would be so cool to one day go to those places and remember specific places mentioned in the books I have read.

Yes. Good written books carry our imagination and allow us to experience the place, culture, food, feelings etc through author's writing.

I really love to go to some places I've never been before. When I'm reading book and it describe a certain place and I kinda imagine the view of the surroundings, I dream of going there someday. One of the places/country I want to visit or probably live is Maldives. The scenery there is so superb and Fascinating.

Yes I do like reading about other places because I can decide if I want to go to the place and I can learn about the culture there. Also people who are native to that area might have a better perspective on things that happen there.

For me, reading books is a way to experience the world. And this is especially true for books where authors are able to vividly describe the places and events, like the reader can almost see, hear, taste, smell and feel what's featured in the book

Yes, it is great to read about other cultures and books taking places in other areas. Reading is like traveling and definitely reading a book about other places provides an amazing experience. It can even spark your love for a new destination or make you start having a new dream

I love reading about places I've never been if it is vividly described. The way the people and surroundings of Morocco were described in this book makes me feel like visiting it.
