London, England for a week for sure; then choose some European cities to visit from there.
I did Spain, France and England on my own when I was 19 and it was the best thing I ever did for myself!

London is awesome alone, so much to see but very pricey. East coast Canada is beautiful in July! Lots of festivals & friendliest people. Inbox me for more info, my fiancé is from Nova Scotia

I did a contiki tour through Australia by myself for 4 weeks when I was 24. It had everything I wanted - adventure, relaxation and about 90% of the people were my age and single travelers. I met people that I'm still friends with, had the time of my life and learned a lot about myself in the process. It was the best trip I've ever been on
Michelle
Hostels are a great way to do it cheap, young & on your own. Great hostel in Montreal (a block from the metro, clean & friendly). Hostel in NYC was also good, just a lot bigger (10-person dorm VS a 4-person dorm in Montreal) & in Spanish Harlem; loved it too.
Deanna
Maui safe safe safe
Robyn
I did London (UK) and area by myself and it was great. So much to see and do. I think London is a pretty low risk place to do as your first solo trip bc it's pretty low risk. Familiar, same language, safe to use public transit. It was my first solo trip and I loved it!
Penny

Ireland!!!! I backpacked the UK for 2 months last year (I was 18) and spent 3 weeks in Ireland and LOVED it. The people are the best, so kind, warm and welcoming.

Greece is amazing if you like hiking or waking . Some great stuff to see the island of Corfu is reasonable you can rent places. On the beach . Fun night life . Beautiful turquoise water with caves to swim in all around great if you are set on one location . With a rail pass you can see so much of Europe. So friendly English not a problem.
Joanne
Thailand go island hopping lots of Asian countries you can travel around like China Cambodia
Nik

I'd also recommend the UK if it's your first big trip. From there you can hop over the Paris, or really anywhere in Europe for a short stay. Also, $816 return to Osaka, Japan right now.

Costa Rica
Costa Rica is a nature lover's paradise. With its diverse landscapes, ranging from lush rainforests to pristine beaches, it offers a perfect balance of adventure and relaxation.

Thailand
Thailand is a popular destination for solo travelers, especially for its affordability and friendly locals. From the bustling streets of Bangkok to the idyllic islands of the Andaman Sea, Thailand offers a diverse range of experiences.

New Zealand
New Zealand is a breathtaking destination for outdoor enthusiasts. With its dramatic landscapes, including snow-capped mountains, glaciers, and lush forests, it offers plenty of opportunities for hiking, camping, and adventure sports.
