I am thinking of going to Italy or Czech Republic (If someone wanted to avoid the hassles of carrying gear and just wanted to find a nice town for some day trips, my first choice would be , Italy. Situated in the heart of the Dolomites, Cortina has incredible, and I mean incredible, scenery and many great passes(don't miss the ride up to the Tre Cime de Lavaredo, it's a great walk to circumnavigate the base as well) and has a night life.
