A Toilet Diary
Toilet, Bathroom, Restroom, Loo, W.C.,Water Closet, Head, Crapper, Reading Room,…..we all use them. While traveling we get to experience many variations of them, and therefore, I’ve decide to keep a Toilet diary and share the experience. I'll be using the acronym W.C. when referring to them, being that it appears to be the most universal international reference.
Le Calendre Restaurant, Italy
The three man in the picture are brothers and the owners of the restaurant. Those Europeans are so funny!
New Zealand Thrice
Your own personal advertisement monitor while peeing in a "trough" urinal. Primitive with modern twist.
New Zealand Again
Self-locking and self cleaning toilets!!! But what happens if there's a power outage?
Kota Kinabalu Mall
Spray butt washer and the door almost reaches the floor - very civilized toilet for a "mall".
Singapore Aquarium
"Porthole" Mirrors - a modern twist of a boat's restroom. Keeping with the aquatic theme of the aquarium.
Fullerton "Five Star" Hotel, Singapore
A near perfect toilet. Each stall is like a closet. Perfect for privacy and you don't have to listen to or hear the person in the stall next next to you. You don't even have see their shoes. All work places should have rest rooms like this.
Overnight Train, Zimbabwe
You’re probably see these in India. Everything drops directly on the tracks.
Bar, Guinea-Bissau
Pee only! No toilet seat, no water or water tank. Located in a dark room with spider webs. A phone light is required to see.
Drill Monkeys, Nigeria -
A beautiful outdoor drop toilet. Doesn't get much better than this... expect perhaps a door!
Ganvie Lake Village, Benin
When the home is on stilts over lakes there doesn't seem to be too many option. Other than a hole in the floor and right into the lake.
