I’ve had some weird dreams in my youngster years where I would be driving on a scary, narrow road similar to this road of death in Bolivia.

Of course, this would be one of the places avoid when traveling.  Heck, I don’t even have the nerve to travel Africa yet.

The Road of Death, properly known as the North Yungas Road, is the only road connecting several small villages in the Yungas region of Bolivia to the rest of LaPaz and the outside world. In Spanish, the road is known as El Camino de la Muerta (the Road of Death).

In recent news, U.S. might start allowing AIDS and HIV positive travelers, which has been banned since 1987.  I think this is a bad idea as there’s no guarantee that the AIDS/HIV traveler will reveal that he/she has HIV.

What if a 20 year old went to a party and slept with one of those travelers?  Now, what if that 20 year old didn’t know he got HIV until 3 years later while he slept with 20 other women.  That’d be serious spread of HIV.

Although I do condone with HIV positive people, there’s no guarantee that they will in good faith not sleep with another person.

The US is one of only a dozen countries - including Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Libya and Russia - that ban travel and immigration for HIV-positive people.

America’s travel ban has been in force since 1987.

The provision lifting the ban was part of a bill granting some $50bn in funding for the fight against HIV/Aids throughout the world.

Here’s a nice report on the best seats available on dometic flights.

In this video, NBC Travel Editor Peter Greenberg gives you information on how to score the best seats in coach class, giving them the moniker “secret seats.” Everyone knows the Exit Row and bulkhead seats offer extra legroom. That’s exactly why some airlines have tagged these as Premium Seats, and try to extract a few extra dollars from travelers to book these seats.

That’s right, you might be able to afford one of these beautiful islands of the world.  The one pictured above is the Dolphine Bay Island in Panama going for $40,000 USD.

Who hasn’t dreamed of living on a private island, away from the hustle and bustle of city life? But, how often have you dismissed this dream with thoughts that you couldn’t possibly afford this luxury? Well, you may need to rethink your dreams, because many private islands now are listed for less than $500,000 USD. In fact, you can find islands for less than $100,000. All you need to do is spend a little time searching online for your dream environment.

Limes Hotel in Brisbane, Australia has just opened.  If you are heading out to Brisband any time soon, you might want to consider booking a room in this stylish setting.

The Limes Hotel only has 21 styled lodging-type rooms that focus on guests’ primary travel requirements rather than following the 5-star standards. They all include custom Corian kitchen benches and toilette vanities, timber bed heads, custom aluminum door handles, Luna Textiles curtains and bathroom wall tiles by Bisazza. Pretty exclusive you may say but wait, because each room is hand painted individually using a mineral coating technique.
