		<description><![CDATA[I find it remarkable how often I know the name of a suburb, but need to find out the postcode.

Remarkable because posting letters is something I do only very, very rarely.  And for what reason - other than posting letters - would I need to know the postcode of a suburb?  

Nonetheless, I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Certainly one of our prime motivations for getting a "proper" place to live in over here was to get a sense of home within an entirely different culture/environment.

To varying degrees we've realised that aim, although I wouldn't for a second try to suggest that an expat apartment in a nice neighborhood reflects much of real [...]]]></description>

Chile has 214, 000 dogs, half of them are homeless. Chile doesn´t have a dog pound and no dogs are euthanased. Instead people or groups of people look after them. Everywhere you see bowls of water and sometimes little houses and blankets left out for them on the street.

Several months back I was keen to get mobile data (internet) access on a prepaid mobile phone account - and discovered that this is essentially impossible in Australia. 

In the UK in June I grabbed a prepaid Orange UK SIM from the supermarket, and GPRS / 3G data was enabled by [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Argentine breakfast like all Argentine food is extremely tasty and extremely unhealthy. 

This array of goodies are called "facturas". You get a dozen for 7 pesos = $2.57 They give you a basket and tongs and you choose 12.  Lots of fun but we are feeling a little ill right now.

Every single one is jam packed with useless flash adornments and disastrous navigation substitutions.  It's horrific.  Feels like the web did in 2001.

In fact, to book our bus tickets (with full reclining bed and [...]]]></description>
