Truthbrush-Travel Case

Description

This handy dandy Truthbrush travel case will keep you honest wherever you wander. It also does a great job of keeping the dust and cockroaches off your Truthbrush toothbrush. 

True story: as many of you know cockroaches are endemic. In Thailand they have big brown versions the size of a small drone. And yes, they fly too. One fine morning, just as dawn was breaking through the tropical haze I took a wander through to the "bathroom" in the modest teak house we were renting in Chiang Mai.

Bleary eyed I noticed movement on the makeshift shelf above the makeshift wash-hand basin. Above the noise of chirping crickets and cicadas there was a distinct munching sound. As my eyes came into focus in the dim light I could make out a 3 inch long creature chowing down on my toothbrush head.

After a long scream at about the pitch of a three year old whose ice cream just dropped off the cone into the sand, I waved my hand at this alien being at which point it took off in a lazy staggering line directly at my face.

As it whirred past my ear like a helicopter from a Vietnam movie, I tried to slap it with my hand, to absolutely no avail. It was then that it dawned on that almost certainly cockroaches had been quietly feasting on the toothpaste residue on my toothbrush for many months.

Nightly. While it clearly had not done me any harm, it was then that I decided I had two choices: sleep with my toothbrush or get myself a handy dandy toothbrush travel case.

My dear RainbowLife friends: you have been warned.
