Nepali toilet




Well what can I say ! Needs must! We are trying to master the art of toiletting Nepali style, wash with the left hand ( no toilet paper). The toilet systems( I presume a type of septic , actually I haven't even gone there to ask where it all goes down that hole) are very basic. No flush. You have a bucket in the room with a small jug in it and a tap . You wash yourself first and then attempt to wash your doo do's down the hole. Some are cleaner than others . We have started rating them!

In a few places, hotels and guest houses we have had European toilets but still the bucket and jug .
People with disability have the challenges of trying to squat and maintain balance Hopefully they then have hand function , left preferably, to wash yourself . ( the right hand is used soley for eating)
