About this audio guide
This audio guide to the Museum of Toilet History in Kyiv is about the couple behind it, Mykola and Marina Bogdanenko, and the plumbing supply trade that shaped how they saw the world. It follows their habit of packing porcelain into holiday luggage, and asks what makes people who sell a product for a living want to keep it. Listen from the first room, where the displays begin their walk through time.
