T.M.I. (Too much info) 😂

I am hopeful that this long term adventure will eventually include some months volunteering in Africa. While planning for that, I learned that as a woman, it’s best to have a way to pee while out and about on safari or working. Squatting in the jungle is not the safest - and sometimes there just isn’t cover.

So I found a “female urination” device - cutely called a “she-wee”. It’s basically a rubber funnel that you can place as necessary, and it allows a woman to stand to pee.

I bought it, and practiced with it at home to make sure it was possible - and .. it’s easier to use than I thought it would be.

So I tucked that away for “Africa” - but then pulled it out last week to use here in China! Why squat over a hole when I have this handy device?

Up until yesterday, there’s been western toilets everywhere so didn’t need to use it - but yesterday was finally the day! No western toilets anywhere - and the She-wee worked phenomenally!

So .. this solves one issue. Can’t do much about … #2 - other than attempt to take care of business at hotels in the morning before heading out - but #1 is handled!!Read more
