Water

So far we have had problems of various kinds with water, mostly the unavailability of it. When people speak of Germany, they say “Beer costs less than water”. What they don’t say is that water itself is very expensive. Even if it is available, 500ml costs around 1 euro and it has soda mixed in it. And then when you want to use the WC (toilet) at the stations you have to pay 0.5 euros more. So keep that hidden cost in mind while drinking.

Not only drinking, they also don’t have water for rinsing hands in restaurants. Strange ways some people have. Same problem in some toilets too. No source of water anywhere in toilets. Infact I was once scolded by the caretaker of the guest house, for keeping my bathroom floor all wet !!!!
