For me (relatively young, definitely in the ham radio circles) I like two activities: Summits on the Air and Parks on the Air.

Summits on the Air - take your gear to a mountain summit and attempt to make at least 4 contacts.

Parks on the Air - take your gear to a state/federal/provincial/national park and attempt to make at least 10 contacts.

Check out Ham Radio Crash Course on YouTube. He has a bunch of great stuff for people interested. From there hopefully one of the areas will pique your interest and you can go down the rabbit hole from there.
