Some of our rules of self-care cause confusion among Europeans, we tell you what differences there are.

It is obvious that people from different countries can have different habits. This also applies to general hygiene. We lived in Europe for a long time, so we learned a little more about their habits.



Today's edition. "Site" He also shared his observations on the differences between us and the Europeans.

As it turned out, most Europeans prefer a shower instead of a bath. Many don't even have bathrooms installed. The fact is that utility bills there are decent, so you have to save. And if you can’t soak up the bathroom at least once a week, why install it? This is exactly what the Europeans thought. So they have a shower instead of a bathroom. Practically, and places are less occupied.



Some Europeans do not wash themselves with running water. It is not common in all countries, but is common among English, Portuguese and Spanish. They cover the sink with a cork, collect water, and then wash. So water consumption is much lower.



In many European homes there is a dishwasher. It’s not just to spend less time washing dishes. It turns out that it also saves a lot of water. It is much cheaper to turn on a fully loaded machine once a day or two than to drain liters of water in vain.



Previous points showed that Europeans are careful about water and its waste. It is impossible to find a European who would allow water to flow into the sewer. Wash the plate with a sponge while the water just flows nearby? A blatant waste. Europeans are used to closing the tap every time there is no need for water. Savings at every turn. We should learn from them.



Another important difference between us and Europeans is the approach to buying underwear. European women are willing to spend a lot of money on underwear, constantly updating it. Even a small puff is an excuse to throw the kit away. We tend to fix and bleach our bras while we can. You can argue for a long time about who is right and who is not.

.

As you can see, general hygiene is different in different countries. Of course, this is not the ultimate truth. Don’t be surprised if this is not the case in a family. We are sure that if you set a goal and search, even in neighboring apartments you will find differences.
