Flying back to Canada soon. We're spending a few days in Seoul before we fly back. I'm so glad that I can now count all my days left at work on two hands. We've been busy trying to organize shit and I've realized that most people are really unreliable when it comes down to it. I mean - I understand that people have hectic lives and all that but if you say you are going to do something then why don't you stick to it? For example....a couple in Busan wanted to buy our scooter. Myles spoke to them a few times, gave them a price and they said they'd get back to us...never did. A woman at work (not the foreigner I mentioned before - things changed there too) said she'd like to take the puppy. However, she lives with her parents (as all single Korean women do) and her mother doesn't like animals but told her she could get a dog if she looked after it herself and kept it in her bedroom (that's a whole other story). We told her she could take the puppy just for the weekend and if it was horrible then she could give her back but she said "I'm not sure I can" - Well then you don't want the damn thing do you?!?!? We also had some guys from a shipping company come and look at and weigh our stuff so we could get a quote on how much it would cost to send it to Canada - that was Monday - still no quote.
So basically we're just waiting on others to get shit going and it's super frustrating. We just hope the puppy finds a good home (preferably not one where it's shut in a room all the time - or one where it's left home alone for 12 or more hours at a time) We have to sell the scooter and we have to ship our stuff home....I guess it will all fall in to place at the last moment - till then..........

That sucks, I HATE having to depend on other people because as you said, many of them are completely unreliable.
Everything will pan out.
Case in point - the korean woman who said she may take the dog.....well she took the dog Friday night and brought it back Saturday night becuase it turns out her mother just "can't endure" living with a dog.......Sheesh!
that's sucky as all hell. Well your dog is better off not being in their care as it looks from here.
now what to do?
