Embracing the culture- it's about the small things too

I promised to post cultural items, so here’s a picture of our bathroom. That’s not a tall bathtub, it’s a bak. You stand beside the bak and use the little bucket to dump water on yourself. Then you wash and rinse. The floor is slightly slanted toward a drain in the corner. Next to the bak is the toilet, also known as a squatty potty... if you're thinking about visiting me, don't worry- there are more western bathrooms in the volunteer house.
