Housing =]
Inside a House Not all Thai houses will have a kitchen or furniture like we do. People will sit and eat on the floor. There is also no shower or bath as we know it, instead there is a big 'tub' for the water and a jug. Thai people bathe by throwing water over themselves.
The traditional Isaan homes were made of raised wooden post construction, so that animals, creeping insects could not enter the houses. The open area beneath the houses also served as a cool daytime workplace. There are still many houses like this today, dotted around the countryside.
Most toilets are squat toilets although the western style toilets are becoming more available. Near the squat toilets there is a container filled with water and a cup or a hose pipe. These replace the flush of water.
