		<title>Bogota!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Greetings from the capital!
For the last two days, Selby and I have been wandering around Bogota, the sprawling, altitudinous capital.  It is 2630 meters (8629 ft)  above sea level; to give you a comparison, the tallest peak in the Great Smoky Mountains is 6643 ft.  Although it does not have a fancy elevated metro system [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Happy Thanksgiving!
I have just emerged from the cloud forest, and I am sorry for not writing earier!  For the last two days, Selby and I were hiking near Salento, a town near Pereira, in the central of the Andean mountain ranges of Colombia.  A jeep took us the 9km outside of Salento the Valle de [...]]]></description>

		<title>Initial Colombian thoughts and Comparisons</title>

Most of the time since my initial post has been spent traveling.  Selby and I left her apartment at 3:45am on Thursday to catch the metro to the airport for our 6:00 flight, arrived at the Medellin International Airport around 3:00pm, and reached a guesthouse (hospedeja) around 6:00pm, after spending an hour getting [...]]]></description>

		<title>The New World</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Obama was elected.  This is fantastic, and this statement is dearly outdated.  I&#8217;m sorry that I didn&#8217;t live up to my promise to comment immediately after the election.  Nearly a month later, I am in St Louis and in a bit of a limbo between the volatile and dynamic inconstancy of traveling and a return [...]]]></description>

		<title>Back in the USA</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have returned to the USA and have employed myself doing manual labor for my parents &#8211; building a retaining wall.  I filled out my absentee ballot and mailed it in, and so my civil obligations have all been met.  Aside from that, there is a lot of relaxation and decompression from my year abroad.
