Description
I can truthfully say I got a chance to live in one of these while growing up. This might look like a simple house to a tourist; yet this is an ultimate air conditioning machine of all times. If it got so hot ouside during the day, we would snick inside our hut home to cool down. The inside would be amazingly cool. In the night, the hut would retain heat within itself when the night outside is really cold.
A little fire would make things even better, making sure we were warm together with our lifestock inside the hut; Yap, some of them like ours was big enough to hold our simple beds, firewood Rack, goat shed, fire or cooking place and a few other things. Good old huts. i hope they don't disappear all together!

What a great composition with the trees reaching in to form an umbrella over the huts. And then I read your description! Thank you for giving me a glimpse of your culture and childhood in a land that to me is so enchanting but so far away, and I shall probably never get to visit. I so enjoyed the story about the huts and how they provided a good home. like/f
