Greeting dear readers!
I hope you’ve been enjoying Brave New Traveler as much as I’ve enjoyed publishing it. Fortunately, it’s becoming more work than I can handle alone. And I’m not afraid to ask for help.
I’ve decided to hire an Advertising Manager to help solicit and handle advertising.
Who I’m Looking For: A happy, motivated, web-savvy person who wants to learn about advertising/marketing and publishing an online magazine.
Volunteer tourism is a hot topic these days.
While volunteering overseas is not new, the “behind the scenes” reality has rarely been conveyed effectively to the masses.
Daniela Kon aims to change that. She’s an independent documentary filmmaker currently in post-production of her debut documentary ‘Changing the World on Vacation ??“ NGO Volunteers and the Politics of Compassion.’
Most single women avoid traveling alone abroad.
I know I did. Until I got a job that involved traveling alone every month, at which point I had to face the realities of being a single woman traveler.
I’ve had to use the men’s room more times than I can count. I’ve been proposed to by a stranger (thanks to a short skirt). I’ve even had to avoid another traveler whose psychopathic tendencies turned my friendly conversation into some sort of deep friendship.

It was a warm summer morning in Bora Bora and my wife was eagerly anticipating her trip to the new spa located at a premier resort in Bora Bora.? Despite generous amounts of sunscreen use during the preceding days, I was too burnt to enjoy a massage or even the most subtle of spa treatments.? Hence, I decided to “explore” the remote portions on our island and started with an intriguing and inviting jetty.? Armed with my digital camera and flip-flops, I was off!

Ah, there’s nothing better than taking a vacation. Daydreaming about an island breeze seducing you into an afternoon sleep or planning your hiking adventure, any concept of an escape is always welcome. Unlike some people, I absolutely love planning my vacations. I love finding information on different purposes and looking for those great hotel and airfare deals. The best hotel and airfare deals are usually found when purchasing a vacation package, but once in a while, you can get great discounts when purchasing separately.

Travel can be a journey into the realms of fear and loathing, or a happy-go-lucky search for wildflowers.
It can be an exploration of animosity, or a ride to the chapel on your wedding day.
This week Tales of the Road explores a brutal jungle of hidden, festering horrors; a moral wasteland where blood-sucking fiends skulk in the shadows, a place so nightmarish that the author who explored its darkest corners is unwilling to identify himself.

Long-term travel is often a tricky financially proposition.
Unless you’ve been gifted an inheritance or a lucky lotto ticket, chances are that someone wanting to join the expat community in a foreign country will have to find work there. Teaching English as a Second Language classes is, by far, the job of choice.
Not because of the perks, but simply because it is the easiest type of work to obtain. In my experience, it seems that simply standing upright and speaking several relatively coherent sentences in English is sufficient to land the job.
