It is a challenge to do laundry in most homes in he Philippines. There are very few washing machines and these are used to spin the water out of he clothes. I have never seen a dryer. Clothes are hung from the rafters above the front porch or on clotheslines. Everyone does wash daily even in the rainy season. What is amazing to me is that the children all wear uniforms to school and they look fresh and clean and everything is ironed. Wash is done in large tubs by hand or by stomping on the clothes with your feet. There is a place on the street for women to pump water or if they are lucky enough to have space in their CRs (comfort rooms), then wash is done in this area.
