Fun facts about Afghanistan that will entertain your friends….ok, maybe not, but they are different….
---Toilets are built in Afghanistan pointing north and south. If it points west, you pee toward Mecca. If it faces east, Mecca views the other end. I am so bringing a compass next time to check all of the toilets here so I can point out problems.
---Afghans use eastern, aka ‘squat’ toilets. As a result, bathroom partitions cannot stop 12 inches above the ground, but have to go to the floor…otherwise, the other users of the facility will look under the partition and see your stuff.
---Afghans shower only in stalls—never in public like at the Y.
---If you put a curtain on a shower stall, and not a door, other Afghans will peak in to see you naked. We know this, as a lot of curtains were pulled down in US facilities when Afghans used them to cover their butts.
---If you see an Afghan naked, he will cover his butt with his hands, and not his jewels.

The more I learn about Afghanistan, the less I know about it.
