This collection of October 2014 travel ideas is chock full of insight and inspiration when it comes to experiences that will take people out of their comfort zone. From travel organizations that target teens in an effort to expose them to different cultures and ways of life to free-spirited vagabond portraits taken in the nude, people are interested in either jumping over the deep end themselves or living vicariously through others while they embark on daredevil adventures.
Of course, interspersed throughout the more risky October 2014 travel ideas are products and services that continues to make journeys easier and more convenient. One designer has ditched the classic neck pillow for a more malleable and comfortable scarf while a hotel has introduced healthy vending machines.
