Let's Play Deductions!

[SherlockedCAMPer]

Is it a type of hair salon or she makes hair dyes?

[Arcadia]

One of the things you mentioned about her is important. THINK! :P

 

The smile? She's a receptionist at, uh, at a place where you go to get warm. Where they make, uh, warmth. (Geez, where is everyone else? Help!)

[Arcadia]

Oh, hi, Camper! Yay! Have fun! :p (Arcadia scuttles away...)

[SherlockedCAMPer]

I did post something. It just took me forever to come up with something plausible.

[Van Buren Supernova]

Yes the smile, how is that relevant? And why so? But she is not a receptionist, and it's not a place to go to get warm (is there such place? Do they have elk or moose? XD)

 

I thought you guys want something to think about :p, to be honest I was worried it's too obvious when I posted it.

Is it a place in Bali where they wash and roast coffee seeds and then ground them into coffee powder for coffees like Kopi Luwak? 

[Van Buren Supernova]

Nice, yes, how did you get that?

I am more curious about thinking process.

 

Although, you are still one step away, so what is this place?

[SherlockedCAMPer]

So the lady is more or less a barista in a Bali coffee shop?

[Van Buren Supernova]

No, not that.

[Surelock]

Nice, yes, how did you get that?

I am more curious about thinking process.

Lol I couldn't think of anything so I decided to cheat by searching the image via the 'Search by Image' feature in Google Images.  :P

 

I found that you got the picture from this blog post:

https://chris13jkt.wordpress.com/2016/09/09/

 

It's a travel blog of a someone's visit to a village in Bali. That picture is used when they talk about how they use the coffee seeds.

 

However they don't give a specific name for this place other than simply referring to it as a coffee plantation. Is that what you're looking for?

[Van Buren Supernova]

But.. but that is not fun!

Oh dear, I wanted to ask if you googled it but it wouldn't be nice if you weren't, so thanks for being honest, this is for you. :p

 

I went to that place but didn't take decent picture so I grabbed it from the net. Just curious, if it's not from the net, as in if I take the picture myself and never upload it, can you still google it? Provided that they look alike.

 

Anyway, coffee plantation is still not what I am looking for, but of course, it should be very easy from here on.

Nope. ATM the picture needs to be uploaded to the net and needs to bet set to public viewing in order for Google to find it. Google won't allow other people to find any photos you have stored onto your computer. Google ain't Skynet yet although it's trying to be.

I honestly don't know what you're looking for. To begin with, I would never have thought of coffee seed roasting on my own despite you claiming that the clues were 'easy'. I'm starting to think this is one of those things that's easy for you but difficult for anyone else. 

[Arcadia]

Just posting it again so I can still see it easier.

 

Okay, I don't have good ome. But maybe this one can be interesting.
What is this place? Try to be specific.
The answer is not kitchen.

 

 

I see nothing in the picture to suggest coffee, so I assume what you're looking for is not specific to coffee making?

 

Is she the clerk in the store where you buy the coffee? No, why would a clerk be cooking ...

 

Break room? Dorm?

 

 

 

 

[Shadow Dweller]

A hut for the local manual workers in that plantation?

[Van Buren Supernova]

Nope. ATM the picture needs to be uploaded to the net and needs to bet set to public viewing in order for Google to find it. Google won't allow other people to find any photos you have stored onto your computer. Google ain't Skynet yet although it's trying to be.

 

I meant pictures that are quite identical. For example if someone take a picture of an object, like, say, the ladies peeing device in previous question. Eventhough it's uploaded from personal computer, would the similarities identified and would google able to make suggestion about what it might be by comparing it to the publicly published database?

Yes, not specific to that.

This is one of the types of the function of place I'm looking for.

Break room? Dorm?

 

No a clerk, break room or dorm.

 

 

A hut for the local manual workers in that plantation?

This is some kind of hut, but I'd say the main function is not for the local manual worker.

 

So, the function of room in the picture is not kitchen. She is roasting coffee in a coffee plantation. Not a break room, dorm or place for the workers. Why is her smile worth mentioning? And the answer that I am looking for is not specifically Bali, or this certain culture or region.

 

What can we deduce from that?

 

P.S Camper, saw you hair dye answer, sorry missed it but now we know that's not it.

It happens to me quite often when someone cross post with others sometimes the post is not seen until the next time I'm logged back. I was very sure I checked twice and didn't see your that particular post. (Will ask around about this in other thread)

[Arcadia]

She's like a hostess? Welcoming visitors to the plantation? Or maybe offering samples of the coffee? That might explain why the place where she is is so freakin' clean (that's been bothering the heck out of me ... why is it so clean? More importantly, why does that puzzle me so much? Urgh.)

[Van Buren Supernova]

Not a hostess or offering samples, her role is what you see in the picture.

The place being clean is a nice observation, why is it so clean?

It needs to be.

Yeah Google can do that.

The only thing I can think of is that this hut is this lady's house and she's waiting for her husband to come home so she can serve him coffee. She keeps the place clean because she doesn't want her husband to trip over anything. She's also smiling so when he comes in he sees her smiling face.

[Van Buren Supernova]

It's a sound deduction (and cute one ) but this is said to be commercial.

[Arcadia]

It's clean because .... it's a clinic? To treat sick coffee beans? Aha, you cure them by roasting them. (PUN!)

[Van Buren Supernova]

There are two main reasons why people keep a place clean.

One is what you mentioned, for hygiene reason.

The other is.... :p

To create a good impression for visitors, tourists etc?

 

I have a question: is this hut exclusive to this part of the world or can I find something like it in the U.S. somewhere? I'm not saying it has to literally be a hut with logs, pots etc. Rather I'm asking is there any place in the west which serves the same purpose as this hut in whatever Asian country it's located in?

[Van Buren Supernova]

To create good impression to visitors and tourists, yes.

 

You can find something like this, as you said, not literally the same, but same concept, somewhere else, yes, in the west as well.

[Surelock]

You said earlier that this place could be private or commercial. 

 

So this place is something that can be private or commercial but you're leaning on it being commercial. You also said that there are places similar to this in the west. 

 

So my guess is that this is a shed of some sort on a larger property. A shed is a place that can be used to store things and also make things in. A shed can also be private or commercial depending on what it's being used for. 

[Van Buren Supernova]

However, why would anyone expecting visitor to a shed?

You are right about this particular picture being some sort of shed in you definition; store and make things. But there is one missing purpose that actually the most important purpose.

Also, you are right that this is on larger property.

 

What I am looking for is basically what is still missing, what is this larger property and what is the missing purpose of this shed that has not been deduced yet.
