		<description><![CDATA[You don&#8217;t see many old people in Cambodia. If you do, you have to wonder about the life they lead. Pol Pot&#8217;s Khmer Rouge regime were responsible for the murder of an estimated 2,400,000 people &#8211; which equates to 33% of the total population of Cambodia &#8211; with countless more being killed through starvation and [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The beautiful, remote village of Nong Khaiw (Nong Kiaw, Nong Kiew, Nong Kiau, or however you want to spell it!) is an absolute must visit for those heading to Northern Laos. Only a 4 hour bus away (albeit bumpy) it is a refreshing change from the lively and touristy cultural hub of Luang Prabang. Sadly, [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many people criticise Singapore for not being a true representation of Asia, having such a strong western influence, but I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s trying to be. It&#8217;s an extremely successful and varied hub for world commerce with lots of Asian flavours thrown in. For a backpacker it&#8217;s an easy, adjustable starting point for a trip [&#8230;]]]></description>

It was to be at the end of a 4 month travel period and &#8216;paradise&#8217; sounded like the ideal way for our travels around the continent to end. The Park is a protected [&#8230;]]]></description>

Unusual for us, yes, but after 3.5 months of constant travelling at a faster than average pace we were ahead of schedule and owed some rest time before our next flight. Santa Marta is very much [&#8230;]]]></description>

It&#8217;s romantically beautiful and really doesn&#8217;t require much more than a stroll around the 13km of colonial stone walls filled with cobbled streets and charming balcony buildings, churches and cafés. But that&#8217;s the postcard. In reality you will be walking around gasping for a breeze and looking for the [&#8230;]]]></description>

The average day is cold and rainy, much to our un-enjoyment, but the cosmopolitan feel of the city makes it dangerously consuming leaving us feeling [&#8230;]]]></description>
