Where's a good place to go on Holiday if you've never really travelled before?

Depends totally on what kind of things you like. Are you a big city person, a small town person, or a countryside person? Do you want to be based in one place for two weeks? Do you want to travel round between different cities on the train? Do you want to meet people or have a quiet holiday alone? Do you want to experience something completely different, or nothing too dramatically different from western Europe? Do you like hiking, or do you want to sit by a pool? There are infinite possibilities! I fancy checking out Portugal since I haven't been there before and it'd be warm and sunny in September. A few days in Porto, Coimbra, Lisbon, getting the train between, and then maybe finishing by the beach in the Algarve. Or hiring a car and exploring the hills of central and northern Portugal and small towns like Tomar. Nice old architecture and beautiful, lush hills. Or if I wanted total chill time, I'd spend two weeks getting boats around the Greek islands. Studios with harbour views are very affordable on the less touristy islands, and it's peaceful as heck wandering around empty lanes to deserted beaches, and sitting by the harbour watching boats bobbing. You could see Athens too. Perfect weather in September. Eastern European countries that don't yet have the Euro are very cheap if that's a main concern. I really like Hungary (it feels like a fully developed country with masses of depth that happened to lose its wealth one day, as opposed to countries that never developed that much to begin with), and if has loads of interesting towns and cities all connected by train. Cheap as chips, and Lake Balaton will still be good in September. Thermal baths everywhere too. I've been a couple of times but still want to go and explore more.
