Where would you go to 'find yourself' (details)?

Let us imagine you are young, lost, and fed up with life. But you have some time off and some money, and instead of visiting your family back home or getting wasted with friends, you want to take a roadtrip to somewhere remote and pretty (in the NE U.S.). You want to simply do something different that would allow you to get some perspective on life and really think about what you want to do and where you want to go in life. You are also alone.

Where would one go? How would they plan it out?
