I think one would go to a place with things that interest them.   If you love surfing, you might want to spend a month on the North Shore of Oahu.   If you just want to escape the world, you might want to go to Wyoming or someplace like that. 

 

Me personally, I like art, history, food, museums, really all the things you would have in certain big cities.   So I would probably tend towards a big European city.   My day would consist of maybe one thing, maybe a particular art museum or historical site or interesting place, and the rest of the day just wandering around, or sitting in a sidewalk cafe, drinking and people watching.   I'd have an apartment where I could go take a nap if I wanted to, in a place where I could walk out my front door and see something interesting.  I'd go to the vegetable market and get some healthy food.  I might take a morning walk and just discover things.   I'd soak up the atmosphere. 

 

I think the best places for me might be Rome or Paris- someplace that is worth spending a whole month. 

 

That's the way I would do it.
