When I was in a village in Siberia, they would take a dump in the outhouse, but place the used TP in a bucket by the bench to be burned.
Now THAT takes getting used to.


I have never seen that in all of my trips to Russia. However, I have to admit the smell in some of the public restrooms would knock an elephant off his feet. Once in Volgograd, I went in a pay restroom, which was sparkling clean, but the smell was so overpowering I spent 10 minutes catching my breath after leaving the room.
