i heard that too from one of my teachers, damn, she said that her mother in law was italian and she complained about her spending all the water XD, we got to that topic when we were on the baroque art and how the bath thubs or whatever they called it were public, and people only went there once a month or so LOL

TMNH, you're from Dallas-Fort Worth? No way! Small world.

(I dunno about the shower thing. I'm sure that if it's true at all, it's only some cultures/countries, though, not all.)

Despite being downwind from France, I've not noticed any differences between how frequently the locals shower/bathe.

Though, I must say this: Everyone and everything smells like cigarette smoke in Germany. Bad? Good? I merely find it annoying.

It's funny, my uncle from India also said that once. There must be some truth in it...

I'm from England and I think showering at least every other day is alright

...especially when you're a busy student and the place is freakin' freezing
