Bathroom Habits

After a month here, I have finally unlocked the secrets to Thai bathroom behavior. I kept noticing these spiggots/hoses behind every toilet. They look like the ones we use in the kitchen sink to spray dishes. Well, I always assumed that these were used to clean the floors in the bathrooms. I only recently discovered that actually these are used to clean your "area" after going to the bathroom. I guess it's a bit like a bedet (biday?) You just use that hose thing and then use the toilet paper to dry yourself off. You throw the toilet paper into the waste basket rather than in the toilet. Seems pretty interesting. However, I refuse to try it in a public restroom. I'm not exactly sure where those hoses have been!
