on the farm
wed nite we got off at a bus stop too early. luckily a nice taxi driver let us borrow his cellie while we waited. neil the farmer took us to the next town. the fam is at bang phra. after being warned of snakes and loud trains adam and i got ready for sleep. he peed on a tree outside and i opted for sqatting indoor by the shower drain. both were recommended as better options than using the testy toilets. the spray bidet is in favor of tissues. if u did use paper u need ur own ziploc. since i have neither i will maintain the permaculture goals. daytime we must use the outside bathroom. therefore all pooping will be scheduled before a shower in case i feel the method of pouring water from a handle bucket is too much. i asked for a demo because when u r squatting u find it much more difficult to clean with water u have to pour. basically one hand pours with small pot shaped bucket and the other wipes so make sure u have soap afterwards. all to say that is why i will wait to use the bidet inside before a shower. turns out with our timing the 10 days at the farm turns out to be only 6 days of work. after weeding our first day we are on break today and tomorrow. we walked over an hour on hot asphalt to search for band aids for adams newly formed sandal blister and find wifi and some form of entertainment. got ice cream from 7_11 and now at a small cafe with the net. going to a night market with other wwoofers and troy, the second in command after neil. gonna collect friut and goods to cook for the next couple days. also in china we couldnt use gmail or facebook at the wifi at an airport cafe but we still made it. so far so good. all thoughts and prayers welcome. i prayed while prepping to land in bangkok. surprisingly bad turbulence. we prolly outwarmed our welcome at this cafe. but we will have wifi at the farm by end of next week perhaps. till then. ciao. kob kun ka for reading.
