[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's guess the country.
Strangely, they had money to come to the the wedding but wouldn't use it to have running water. 
My family never came and they won't. Over the years they put in a shower in their historic home, new boiler, washing machine, new roof, windows. I left them my car and of course they have internet.
Improvements are not an option or different priorities?[/quote]

OP here. I don't think it's a priority... they grew up this way and I don't think there is a way to mix the water so it's warm like in the US. They have a water boiler, but the water comes out extremely hot, and then there is a cold water faucet as well. In the bathroom, the cold and hot water faucets are separated. During our last visit, they didn't have a water heater in the bathroom.. it's basically like having a tea kettle in the bathroom.. it helps, but you still have to use a bucket to wash yourself... I bought a camping portable shower this time, and it helps, but it's a lot of water to set it up....... my back hurts by the time I get it all set up. we have two kids so I need to do this for 3 people. i know eating chicken nuggets isn't healthy but its easier for the kids because they can't eat the local food here.. it's too spicy. Buying raw meat here is more complicated and hygenie is also a concern ... you have to clean and prepare all the seasonings.. they don't have an oven.. I am going to go to sleep now... vent over.. dh's family is very nice so at least I am blessed with that.
