Yes, this is exactly what it looks like and sounds like. Laundry in the bathtub. We have a laundry service at the hotel where we’re staying, but it’s kind of expensive to have them wash every piece of clothing that we own, so I’ve taken the bathtub route.

It’s definitely a group effort. I fill up the tub, pour in the Tide, rub the clothes together and let them soak. Then, I rinse them, Russell rings them and we hang them on a string with clothes pins that I found in the ELIC camp bins. Oh, the bonding we’re experiencing! Some of our teammates have asked us to borrow our “clothes-line” and clothes pins.

Any how, it gets the job done. Oh the experiences in South East Asia!
