People’s Opinions
For the Light in the forest ministry, we stayed in the “Texas cabin” that was built about a year ago. We built our own beds out of wood, and they had new mattresses for us. We showered outside with water from the pond, but used the sauna towards the end of the month for a warm place to wash off. We were there in July where it was still pretty chilly. We had a port-a-potty to use the restroom in, that had to be cleaned out at the end of the month, so I would recommended just using it outside. We cooked our meals over the fire. Over the weekends, we went into Tartu to our host’s home and got a real shower, etc. There was internet in the forest as well as at their home.
