Looking to take a mini-holiday the last weekend of July where i've booked off Fri-Mon....looking to leave Thursday night by plane to somewhere far enough away to relax and do some soul searching.
Only problem is I have no idea where, not looking to spend a fortune, but i would like to avoid any major urbran centres (coming from the GTA) - somewhere where i can relax and also do some exploring on my own.
Also will be taking a plane to wherever

Since you want to fly, you'll end up in an urban environment kwim?
Will you be renting a car when you get to wherever? Maybe head east, it's beautiful this time of year, and there's nothing like the sound of the ocean for soul searching.
My friend just messaged me that WestJet has a deal to Moncton for $144 each way that expires tomorrow and a bunch of us are going to her wedding next month.

Hit up all the eastern provinces (well, not NFLD, it's a little out of the way). It's easily doable without rushing.

How taking a plane out West to BC (Kelowna by air maybe). Spend a few days in wine country in Okanagan, eating good food and fresh fruit and drinking wine at local wineries ? You could also drive a few hours and spend some time in Lake Louise.

You know if you took Thursday off instead of Monday, you could go to the Bahamas. You only need photo id to get through immigration there if it's a direct flight from Toronto.

Nova Scotia. Rent a car from Halifax Airport and drive up to Cape Breton and do the Cabot Trail. One of the most spectacular drives in the world and you'll meet some of the friendliest people ever. I did it last October (3 day long weekend) and it was incredible.
