Afghan living room
Balkh, Afghanistan
The inside of a traditional adobe farmhouse can be surprisingly bright and cheery. This farmer's house lacks any furnishings except carpets on the floor (for sitting) and a samovar (for warmth and heating up water for tea). Bedding is rolled out onto the carpets at night.
