Things that I miss
I love to travel and don’t mind roughing it, but I thought I’d share a few comforts that I miss back home:
- Eating the peels on fruits and vegetables
- Putting toilet paper in the toilet, not a stinky little trash can
- Sealed windows, indoor heating
- A hot water faucet in addition to the cold faucet (instead of one faucet: it’s a little different washing plates without hot or even warm water)
- Not being afraid to get diarrhea every time I eat
- Drinking water out of the tap
- Bathtubs
- A washing machine in the house
- Having a freezer
- Red ale and IPA beer
- dark chocolate!
- a garden or even a yard
- toilet paper in every public bathroom (including theaters and restaurants)
- not having to pay to pee in a hole in a ground
Don’t get me wrong, I’m surviving just fine. There’s plenty of things I don’t miss, like having a car or a schedule or working an 8 or more hour day.
