1. Aspen, Colorado.

For your first journey with your SO, you want to pick a place that will leave a picturesque memory in your mind. For this, look no further than Aspen, Colorado.

Aspen has a lot to offer. It’s a stomping ground for the rich and the famous, it’s breathtakingly beautiful, and it also offers world-class skiing and lodgings.

If you’re not into hitting the slopes, you can take a trip to Glenwood Hot Springs, just 40 miles from Aspen proper. Wellness enthusiasts can spend some time soaking in a hot bath and generally getting shamelessly pampered.

So, let's go!
