Hi, It’s my first time travelling alone without any friends or family. And I have no idea where I want to go and when !! So I’m here to ask if you have any idea of travels plan. 
I would like to discover new country and spend all of my time in nature and not in big cities. Do you have any recommendations ?  
I have a flex pass

There are many possibilities, and a lot of locations to go to 😅.

Some things I liked:

Slovenia is rather natural, with relatively good connections. Especially the region around the Bohinj lake (get off in Bohinsjka Bistrica), much less touristy as Lake Bled, but equally as nice.

In general, the alps have dozens of smaller towns and cities, well connected via rail with lot’s of mountains or nature reserve nearby.

Other suggestions, Luxemburg, the Mullerthal region. You can hike multiple days in a very nice setting. Lot’s of woodlands, hills, cute towns, ideal for a multi day hike. It’s signposted very well, and all public transport is for free in Luxemburg, so if you get tired there’s always a bus nearby to get to.

The black forest has als a quite some nice smaller towns, well connected via rail.

Scotland is also a nice idea, especially north from Glasgow and Perth. I really liked Pitlochry a couple of summers ago.

Norway of course. In Bergen you have a bigger city, but amazing nature very close by, with good transport links. But many other nice places there, too much to sum up.
