The traditional type of housing here in Mundri is called a tukul. Traditionally, this housing is made with a mud foundation and grass roof. Ours is made with a concrete bottom and a zink roof. In a time when there has been a lot to adjust to, our tukul has been a bright spot. We are starting to feel settled in it and it is comfortable. Here is a tour of our house.

Our kitchen area. The staff had this added for us before we came
so that we can cook in our own house. There is a small dining area on the other side of the counter. |

I can't tell from the photos. Do the windows have glass in them or not?
ReplyDeleteHey Lauri! No, the windows do not have glass. It is just a screen behind the bars. This allows the breeze in, which is nice. However, if we ever have a sideways rain, our stuff could get a little wet ;).
ReplyDeleteWow, lots of cement... Which is better than dirt I guess!! Looks like a sweet, cozy place :)
