A Good Lesson on Rubbish Day
On today’s adventure while chasing life in South Korea, It was a most interesting day. I cleaned house and took care of my rubbish. Now, speaking of rubbish, in Korea you must separate rubbish in four ways: plastic, paper, food waste, and everything else. You have to purchase pink colored bags for this.
