		<description><![CDATA[Congrats on graduating!!! That&#039;s an amazing accomplishment.... and from what I can tell, people who walk their own path in this world usually leave it happier and more fullfilled;) I now have to add Death Valley to my must visit list!! So many cool places to see that are in my own backyard.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It took about 4 hours total. It was a trippy experience. The mirage effect definitely played a role and I didn&#039;t realize how far it actually was. I got to this point though where I had gone so far and I just HAD to get to the other end. I wish I had packed a better pack (more water &amp; food) but I am super glad I did it. It was an amazing experience to get to the other side and be in apart of the world where hardly anyone had ever been.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oh absolutely! Grad school is about so much more than building a bigger brain. I 100% learned about how I work, what works (and what doesn&#039;t), what I&#039;m good at (and what I&#039;m not), etc. it&#039;s funny because grad school was full of failure, but also, I came out feeling so confident and strong. it&#039;s a great experience -- congratulations on going for it!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[WOAH! That sounds amazing Angie, how long did it take you? We walked for what felt like forever and when we looked back, I couldn&#039;t believe how &quot;close&quot; we still were. But I would love to walk the whole thing, some day!]]></description>
