The reason I ask…
This morning, I was having a shower. I came out and my family asked me if I wanted a drink of water. I said “no, I had one in the shower” and my mother gave me crazy eyes.
Mother: You drink the shower water?
Me: Yes! I always do.
Mother: That is so bad! You can get away with that in [name_u]New[/name_u] [name_u]Zealand[/name_u], but you can’t overseas.
Me: Why’s that?
Mother: When I was in [name_u]South[/name_u] [name_u]America[/name_u], I drank tap water and got very sick. It’s a bad habit. Try get out of it before you move overseas.
(I’m planning on spending a few years in [name_u]South[/name_u] [name_u]America[/name_u] after university).
