Cleaning in style

Well we have learned many tactics in cleaning our house. First squeegy the porch when it rains, (saves water) there are two drains on either end of the porch to help us out with this. Secondly this is a broom. Welcome to south asia where everything is done by squatting... so long handles are not needed. All the women are short anyway so why would they need something so tall?
They say it doesn't flood here...however that is not the case in our house. one day it was raining so hard and fast that the drains couldn't keep up and we became the guardians of our door so it wouldn't come inside. The other flood was located in our house where everytime we would use the sink, the water would come out from under and cause a new lake in our dining room.
