		<description><![CDATA[The 38th Parallel could be the name of a book, or a band and its album&#8230;or perhaps even a hole-in-the-wall restaurant offering cuisine falling above and below this line of demarcation (Pyongyang Nangmyeon is highly recommended Korean sources say). What it is though is the name given to the border separating North and South Korea.

		<description><![CDATA[In reading a recent blog, the author raised the question, &#8220;Why do we travel?&#8221; For many, a possible knee-jerk response sounds something like, &#8220;to see new sights&#8221;, &#8220;to visit family/friends&#8221; and the myriad other reasons may fall into the &#8220;trying new food&#8221; and &#8220;sightseeing&#8221; categories.
