I wasn't in that area so I can't really help you out. Um... it's a cultural thing. But be prepared for that. Also, most of the toilets are not the kind you sit on. Do as much research as you can before hand. It helps with the culture shock. The language barrier sucks, but everyone I met was really friendly. A lot of people like to take their pictures with Americans, particularly if you are tall or have blond or red hair. The more rural area you're in, the more of a novelty that is. It is an amazing country to visit.
Pluke and Bill: remind me never to visit you guys. Lol!
