Initialize self.coodinates in the __init__ or indent the "print self.description, str(self.coordinates)" one more level. You have to remember that "endElement" is being called on the end of every element. In your case it is called by </description> but the parser did not see <coordinates> yet. In "def characters" you should be collecting the "ch" in a buffer. It may be called multiple times for the same element. Something like "self.description += ch" would do for starters. Also you do not need to convert self.coordinates to string before printing, it is already a string and even if it was not "print" would convert it for you. That's it for now :-) Others may spot more issues with your code or my response. On the positive side I really liked how you asked the question. There was a short runnable example and traceback.
