Dish washing without a dishwasher

Tibetan nun washing the dishes, Lhasa, Tibet

She has no dishwashingmachine, but the dishes have to be cleaned. In the full sun on about 4000 meter above sealevel. All by hand. Mind her back! Will she be in a couple of years like all those old women. A bended back!
How about us? Sp[oiled by our electronic devices. Ever done dishwashing by hand? In the garden. Bend like a bow? Mind this nun and her back, and her hands, when you fill you dishwasher.

Have a nice day!

  1. Between me, you and the blog - Ive done dishes by hand as well as loads of laundry for a family of 8 and with cold water & one of those old wash boards!

    Love the photo. I really wish I could travel and get such captures.

    Thank you for sharing.
