A stunning interior to say the least. So many questions though. It looks as if the roof is thatched. Does it rain there? Does the rain seep through the roof? How do they keep that from happening?
@grammyn Interesting questions Katy, I had to google the answers except for the rain. We do get a lot of rain during the winter months.
Thatch is great at keeping water out as the materials are naturally waterproof. They won't become waterlogged and seep into the interior, they are piled on top of each other so that it becomes impenetrable to rain and other elements. It also grows locally in abundance and is an eco friendly option. It is also much more expensive than tiles, due to the labor costs. Insurance is also very expensive as the catch fire .
