Why don´t they have toilet seats? Sitting on the porcelain is very uncomfortable. There should be a course describing how to use el bano. Sometimes, my body parts hit the water so to speak and I find this very disquieting...a yuchy experience!

Its design is much improved over the diagram in this article. The contractor and architect was Justiniano Cervera Mario Humberto, who also specialized in swimming pools. His telephone number is (999)947-5132. The so-called "gray water" from the kitchen and bathrooms also flows through the fosa septica. We grew up in California, but you probably know more about Whittier than we do! Hola Juan,

I've kind of gotten used to it living North of Mahahual in Placer and like an earlier post - feel guilty flushing things down the toilet when I go to the US. . . ;-) An Interesting note, if you travel throughout Central and South America, you will find many countries to the same thing with the toilet paper – regardless of science, maybe we can learn something?
