		<description><![CDATA[Travel UpdateI have been traveling for a while, and I have finally settled down in Friday Harbor, Washington State for the time being.  I didn&#8217;t get as much Internet time in transit as I had hoped, so I will be posting my hand-written journal entries here, post-dated to when they happened.

		<description><![CDATA[A Night at Charles De Gaulle AirportJust as with Paris itself, the horrible reviews and stories I&#8217;ve read about Charles de Gaulle airport seemed completely unfounded. Of course, I had an EU flight on an early Sunday morning.  I&#8217;m sure other times are more hectic, with more crazies about&#8230;

		<description><![CDATA[Making Money While WWOOFing 
This is more of an issue for long-term WWOOFers. In most WWOOFing situations, you will have free rent and utitilities, and at least some free food.  Some hosts will even have Internet access, a swimming pool, a vehicle to use, or other extras.  But at most places you&#8217;ll just get the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[WWOOFing With Kids
The Basics
I get asked all the time if you can WWOOF if you have kids.  The short answer is yes!  Many hosts do allow and even encourage volunteers to bring their children.  But actually doing it can be challenging.
What is WWOOFing, exactly?  Willing Workers On Organic Farms or Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms, [...]]]></description>
