Cut, Paste and Tumble Dry

Did you know that for most of us in my country, our laundry area is outdoors and that we still do laundry by hand? Washing machines are pretty common but most of the population still prefer to do stuff the traditional way. The common laundry area pretty much looks like this.

We use tubs for washing and rinsing and then manually wring the clothes to get rid of most of the water.  Drying is still done the traditional way too. And that means hanging clothes on a clothesline to dry for the whole day. I guess some of you still do this.

So why am I telling you this? Well, aside from the fact that I simply felt like doing chit-chat and giving you a peek of my beloved Philippine culture, I also wanted to reason with myself on why I simply can't have any of these rooms..
