Hard to explain, so here's walk through of most bathrooms in the Philippines. A few key things to note:
* This is nice one! Some are more like outhouses.
* Some you have to carry your own buckets of water.
* You get used to it! Cold water isn't a terrible way to start the day.
* Hotels, upper class homes and others might have a different say on their day-to-day but again this was meant to be a slice into my experience living with families and in branch offices of my host microfinanci instituion, Ahom sa Hirap, In. (ASHI) for my Kiva Fellowship
You are the best. I wouldn't have lasted a day!
