Extreme Travel

Our friends from The Coolist have come up with a list of 6 adventures to embark on during your lifetime.

Virgin Galactic Space Tourism

With his programme Virgin Galactic Space Tourism, Sir Richard Branson offers the first sub-orbital flight around earth.

The first flight is scheduled for this year and will fly its first 40 customers who have already paid the 200,000$ to fly on SpaceShipTwo.

Deep Sea Submarine Travel

At the other end of the spectrum, Deep Ocean Expeditions proposes visits to the deepest oceans on earth. For 2012, they have even organised a dive to see the legendary Titanic wreckage in the North Atlantic Ocean.

Finca Bellavista

It’s also possible to distance yourself from all worldly worries in the Finca Bellavista, set deep in the jungle of Costa Rica.

Finca Bellavista is a tree house community run by expats who wanted a simpler, more natural lifestyle. The beach is but a few trees away.

Antartica

Finally, for those who want to push their body to the limit, areas of Antartica normally only available to governmental researchers are now opening their doors to the public. Enjoy the South Pole at its best.
