Homestay

We went to a cave in a mountain yesterday. The cave has a room where the light coming from the hole in the top makes it look moonlit in the middle of the day. Also, you can walk up and out of the other side and all over the mountain. It was jungly and terrific.

There's this program here where for like $17 a day, you can stay with a family and they feed you. It's pretty much awesome. They have to have a Western style (ish) bathroom, but they don't necessarily speak English. That just makes it more fun. We played games with the kids and ate crazy fruit and crazy spicy stuff and rice for three meals. It's pretty much awesome.

Wow, that sounds cool. Are you taking any pics? The Western-ish bathroom sounds interesting...

By Western, I mean with a non-squatty toilet and a shower. By ish I mean there is no shower curtain and no toilet paper and not necessarily a sink.
