Wow, coming from a typical Indian village and growing up in there, I see so many similarities here and in my hometown. In fact we had exactly same kind of toilets. In fact till I was 10 years old, we did not even had toilets. Left hometown at 16 for higher studies and now at 37 settled in a major-city, I terribly miss the village life. There was a slowness and tranquility that was present there. And being a kid, it was a worry-free time.
