Haha! You would know I guess.....



It is so gross here. Everyone's trash gets pilled on the street corners, bathrooms are never clean and soap is sparse. The streets are full of goop, trash and general nastiness. I have but 26 days left here, not that I am counting.
I remember an old movie about WWII and somebody said, "dirty Japs" and I believe it was Frank Sinatra, the anti-war hero of the movie who was 4F in real life, waxing eloquent on how clean the Japanese were, taking baths all the time and such. I realize Korea ain't Japan, but you were talking about the majority of the Orient, I suppose. I figured Korea was pretty clean.
