I want to take a vacation by myself

So I have always been a loner in lots of ways... I want to plan a week off of work to do whatever the hell I want, when I want with no limitations. I want to do something I havent done like road trips, hang gliding, hiking, rock climbing, etc. I am starting from the D.C. area and need to escape from these corporate political weanies im surrounded by on a daily basis...

So... Any suggestions from anyone who has done this or wishes to do this and has an idea of what to do?

I am going to purchase a GPS that has tons of points of interest so I can find things easily and lower any anxiety levels if I get lost which I would love to do. I dont even care if I have to sleep in my car and adventure like crazy im going to do it...
 
are we limiting ourselves to just the US and driving? Or can you fly in the US and out..

Oh and I would say rock climbing or any other semi dangerous sport would be best done with a friend so I would rule those out. Going out into the wilderness on your own isn't always the best idea unless its like a camp ground and you know where you are going.

Go skydiving, take a flying lesson, join a group and go white water rafting, go to some concerts you really want to go to...

Really..given a week or alittle more with just over 2k I would fly somewhere outside the US.. you could fly tons of places and find a cheap hotel or hostel and do a lot of fun stuff.
 
Look, you could fly to brazil or somewhere like that for like 700-800 bucks. Your money is worth a lot more there, you could have a great time seeing the sights and everything with your 1200 left over. Much more exciting then going to florida or whatever
 
Find the best places to do the things you listed and drive to them or fly? Depending on distance this could be a semi hassle.

Look into bike touring, I am starting to get into it and its been loads of fun. Riding around seeing scenic sights, camping and meeting local people along the way.
 
Go to the Pacific Northwest and hike up a couple of mountains. You'll have awesome pictures and stories.

omg two weeks and more money..

gtfo of the US! You could fly to Europe and back pack! You could take a cruise! So much more potential then going to see the grand canyon or something.
 
Corpus Christi, TX. Mustang Island is really nice, you can go deep sea fishing in the Gulf, go on a Casino Cruise, nail some hot Texas Co-eds.

Fixed.

Head west young man ... Colorado, Wyoming etc. Or jump on the Appalachian Trail for an extended trip using only your two feet.

 
I'd probably fly to someplace like Costa Rica. I think you could do a week for $2k if you didn't spend a lot while down there.
 
Im heading west, I have never been west and would love to travel west, meet lots of people, drink lots of beer, etc etc.

Who knows what will happen
