I think an unexpectedly interesting part of time travel would be the smells. Smoking is still a thing in the USA, but nothing like in the 1970s and earlier. The other day I was in a fairly small room with a fairly large number of smokers. They weren't actually smoking but I knew because of the smell coming from their clothes and bodies. It's hard to believe that's the way everyone and everyplace smelled once upon a time. Even back in the early 2000s, I had someone ask if I minded if they smoked and in college the lounge we would hang out at between classes allowed smoking for the first few years I was in college so I said something to that effect. I was surprised by how overpowering cigarette smoke is when you haven't been around it for 10-15 years.
