frankenstein's lab?


No its my new bathroom. my last apartment was infested with ants. flies,cochroaches and very noisy children. SO, I moved. this is really is a very decent, typical south indian guest house, but as you can see the bahroom is a tad funky. you can take a shower or a bucket bath but you have to do so with COLD waster. not being a fan of cold water bathing, i have to heat my water bucket with a "Coil" that is the funny looking thing suspended in my bucket by a stick. it gets outrageously out very quickly and you cannot touch it anywhere but the stick. this being india. the coil is not grounded and can provide quite a shock if you touch it. The outlet was placed way to high so i had to get a stool to set my bucket on so the coil could reach. If you notice there is a house beside the toilet. you use this to freshen up after a poo insted of toilet paper. fesh as a spring dasiy as they say. I tell ya, i just love india!

Whatever you do don't TOUCH THAT COIL when it's plugged in! Let me see... ungrounded live wire and water. Recipe for disaster.
