My house - the clutter is mostly mine I have to admit! |
Let's just say that we do things differently so a bonfire was needed regularly to burn our waste - disposable nappies are not easily disposed of! |
The kids helped with the bonfire - by taking roofing from the neighbour's pig house! |
Blue wall is my house the other properties belong to our next door / upstairs neighbours - the terraces are that steep! |
Everyone used the tap by Pipi's house. |
But with the loan of a small gas stove and pans I had the luxury of washing in private in warm water. |
Doing the dishes |
The family all help to make Momos which will be steamed over the open fire |
After the neighbour's pig was slaughtered the meat was shared out. This man is cutting large chunks into smaller pieces using his Kurkuri knife which he braces between chest and floor |
(Pipi grinds the flour for the day) |
I introduced the children to a pack of cards and Snap was a firm favourite. However when everything takes place on the floor they soon take on a Used appearance. |
My portable solar panel was handy fro charging camera and headtorch when the electricity supply was not available |
Pushpa stands in front of the bed in Pips house |
Anouraj helps with cooking - or waits for titbits? The fire is lit in a rectangular pit which is not quite central to the room |
In this picture the fire is to my left and the bed is to my right. |
