Ideas to do a trip alone

You might should narrow it down to what region you are interested in, what you like to do, budget, flying vs driving, etc.

I've got the itch to do a short trip alone since I haven't had one in a while and Asheville keeps calling my name. I want to stay in the city and walk to all of the great breweries and listen to music at night. Early in the day I want to go do some hiking or rafting or something.

I, personally, would probably just go get lost in the mountains somewhere for a week or 2 if I were just coming off a divorce

Go to Mallorca in Spain for a couple days and mess with European women, then hop over to Lake Como in Italy or the Alps in Switzerland or Austria for some stunning views.

My divorce is going to be final at the end of this month and I am looking to take a trip somewhere to just get away from everything. I am 31 and am up for just about anything. I travel a a decent amount for work to where traveling by myself isn't an issue. I am open to any and all ideas.

Is there a place you always wanted to visit, but were never able to while you were married?

If not, England is pretty dang awesome if you're willing to do something international.

There are many, many great options out there, but if this is what you want to do, come to Oregon.

Portland is large enough to keep you grounded in civilization, but you can see the beaches, the mountains, and the desert all in one day. 90 minutes west of Portland is the beach, and 90 minutes east of Portland is Mt Hood. There is all kinds of hiking and boating opportunities nearby. For water activities, you can fish, go to Hood River and wind surf, or go whitewater rafting.

The beaches in Oregon aren't the kind you just lay out on all day, you walk them and explore tidal pools, driftwood, and hiking trails.

Great breweries all across the state and they are mostly laid back without loud music and big crowds, which makes them the perfect place to go and have a great craft beer in solitude, or to strike up a conversation. There are many great restaurants in Portland. The food scene here is fantastic, and I like the fact that it is laid back. Portland is not a white table cloth kind of town, so even the best restaurants are laid back holes in the wall that are more hip than formal.

Anyway - there's my take on Portland. I'll shut up and let others make suggestions, now.

I did London solo and loved it

That sounds pretty cool actually. Never been to the Northwest. I've got plenty of miles for flights so that won't be an issue.

Very underrated trip, route 66.
