I won&#8217;t steal their thunder by posting them all here, but I agree with some more than others. I lived in a suburb of Seoul for a year and while I&#8217;ll agree that there&#8217;s not much soul in Seoul, it does [...]]]></description>

This photo of a snack delivery truck in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, is wrong on so many levels that I&#8217;ll refrain from even making a comment.
