Travel Stories - Massage Training in the Jungles of Belize - Life
Another ten miles and we're driving through Maskall Village. I see tiny, plain faced huts with dirt floors, and square shingled houses on stilts. Barefooted children with varying tones of skin color, dressed in little, or nothing, stare as we pass by.
We roll down our windows. I feel a hot breeze. The air is saturated with strange, pleasant aromas. We pass a mango tree. In the distance I hear drums, beating.
There's a shocking lack of techno-gadgets in a jungle village. No television, no cars, no computers. Not even basic services exist like indoor plumbing, electricity, or telephones.
My driver informs me that two modern conveniences recently arrived in Maskall. A generator and a telephone. The generator provides daily electrical service from 6 p.m. to midnight. The favorite appliance I am told is a washing machine though television runs a close second.
Villagers communally share their utility services. For instance in Maskall the villagers decided to have their one phone installed at Miss Delva's centrally located hut. Children stop by, collect the bits of scrap paper with scribbled messages and run, delivering them around the village.
