		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s that time of year again, my precious week vacation in the summer.  Last year I went to Beijing and Shanghai over the summer break, but this year I had my eyes set on Russia.  It&#8217;s a country I&#8217;ve always been curious about, mostly because of the dark history and the Cold War.  So, here [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Korea is so funny sometimes.  You travel just a couple hours away from Seoul (or less) and soon stumble across some special sight or nature that takes you into a completely different world.  Whether it&#8217;s hills of green tea fields, deep caves that go on forever, rocky cliff beaches, bamboo forests, or in the case [...]]]></description>

A couple weekends ago I went with friends to the east coast of S. Korea, we visited a small little beach city called Samcheok.  Things were starting to warm up a bit and we were all severely in the mood for a weekend getaway trip!
 
The bus ride (very comfortable bus) was almost 4 hours&#8230;.we left [...]]]></description>

Last year for this holiday (yes, it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to the advice of my co-worker (Ben), I took a trip to Sobaeksan National Park today.  Ben visited this place soon after he arrived in Korea, and I remember him telling me about how beautiful it was.  Riding the train through mountains that remind him of the Alps, he got off the train at a stop called Huibangsa, and spoke so highly of it [...]]]></description>

When I say &#8220;island&#8221; I&#8217;m talking about a very [...]]]></description>
