		<description><![CDATA[When I was in Israel in 2009, I thought it would be Jerusalem that made an impression on me. But while I found Jerusalem an unique experience in its antiquity, overall it was a bit too stuffy for my liking with its overwhelming religious zeal. Tel Aviv, rather, was more my speed. My hotel was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While I&#8217;m famously not a fan of Vegas, there&#8217;s something to be said for a city that can do bright, bold and flashy light displays in a tasteful manner. Dubai is such a city. It&#8217;s oddly reminiscent of Disney World&#8217;s Electrical Parade, wouldn&#8217;t you say? And what better vantage point from which to observe said skyline than an aerial [...]]]></description>
