There are many "experientii!" travel op"" portunities in the U.S. and abroad, giving the adventure-minded an eyeopening-and often unforgettablebreak from the mundane.

These trips can last from a day to as long as you'd like and can cost next to nothing-if, for instance, you volunteer as a farmhand with an organization such as Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms. But they can also cost thousands; the Maasai experience, in which you'll learn about the group's medicinal use of plants and other traditions, is organized by Cottar's 1920s Safari Camp, where guests stay in luxury tents for $530 a night per person. (Airfare isn't included in any of these trips.)
