An inside view
Although the bathrooms in the village can be a little daunting at first, an experienced village person can grow quite accustomed to the facilities in the middle of nowhere. All you need is some strong legs and good balance, and you are set to go. The most complicated part is the flushing part because the toilets don't have a flusher. You and your trusty bucket are the flusher. It all works pretty easily, you just have to know which bin of water to take the water from. In most bathrooms, there is one bin of water for flushing, one for bathing. One must be sure to use the right bucket, because the hilltribe people don't really like it when you use the bathing bucket to flush and it is a little embarrassing when you find out you have been using the toilet bucket to bathe. But, like I said, an experienced person learns quickly!!
