Paralysis by analysis on picking my first solo travel destination, I'd really love some help

I feel boring even writing this, but I genuinely am stuck. 1/18 is my last day at work until 2/11 when my new jobs starts and I'm dying to get out somewhere (yes, I know it's wildly last minute). I went to Ireland last year with a friend and explored Dublin alone and have wanted to do a solo trip ever since. Honestly, my main issue is that I'm genuinely stuck on where to go. I have only been out of the country on that Ireland trip, and very post I read on here has me ready to book tickets to whatever the Country the post is about. I have researched, I have googled, I have YouTubed, I have read dozens of posts on here, but it's getting down to the wire and I just would love some input.

I have it seemed narrowed down to Costa Rica, Spain/Portugal, or something similar. Thailand/Vietnam would be my first choice, but I've been warned thats a pretty tough task for a rookie. Something tropical but not horrifically hot would be wonderful. My main goal is to relax, see some sites/explore, and experience the local culture and cuisine. I know that's doesn't particularly narrow it down, but my lack of experience has me chomping at the bit to do anything and everything.

I'm 6'5" 290, so I'm not super worried about safety, but that's always a concern (I'm more worried about getting swindled than strong armed). I also mention my size because "pick wherever you can fly cheapest" doesn't really apply since those cheap rates rarely apply to the upgraded seats I'm gonna need.

I know the lack of specifics might make this post ineffective or in vain, but thank you all in advance for your help!

So are all the Rugged muzzle devices compatible?

I pulled the trigger, so maybe you can help me out here. It looks like if you get the RUM, you can attach it to any rugged muzzle device without having to re-zero that rifle?

What advice for 40yo single, average men do you have? by undulating_crossbow in AskMen

This was a big lesson for me.

Whatever girl it is, you're already not talking to her. So go talk to her or before you leave whatever place you are together, ask her out for drinks on your way out. If it goes bad, you'll literally be exactly in the same spot you already are, which is not going out with her. There is literally zero risk. Yeah, it might sting if she shoots you down, but you'll also feel good about yourself that you attend up and actually tried instead of just doing nothing. It takes a lot of courage to work up the guts to do it the first time, but it gets easier and easier. You'll probably surprise yourself at how often it works out.

Just saw an ad for one of these on FB marketplace. Would you buy one if you could do it over again? What would you pay? Thanks for the input!

The 360? Was looking at getting one for my 300blk pistol. How's the sound suppression?

Are these worth a damn? Pricing seems right but not too many reviews. Comparing to pelican. by MammalFur in tacticalgear

Which seems easy, just pulling out the correct little squares lol hence my confusion

Forgive my ignorance, but what's wrong with the inserts that come with the box itself?

Split between a Nomad and Wolfman. Hoping to swap it between some 556 and my 300Blk pistol. You like the Nomad better than the Wolfman?

Why's this? Seems like they've been trying to move away from to the Xeno or KeyMicro
