Bangkok, Thailand- Siem Reap, Cambodia (day 86)
Today I had my first experience of the Happy House. In South East Asia the word 'Happy House' is used to refer to the toilets.
Today in the "happy house" I got to use a squat toilet for the first time. I had to giggle to myself when I announced to the group that I was off to the happy house. I managed to use the squat toilet without incident and was quite proud of myself.
On the way out a little girl caught my eye. She was filling a water gun with the water/ sewerage from the squat toilet. This was a funny sight, but also a little tragic. It screams how poor this little girls living standards must be for her to so naturally use this water.
Life changing huh?
