sugargypsy replied to the thread Shower/bathroom etiquette in the albergues?.Out of interest, because this question comes up here from time to time: I am German, but I also lived in the States (in the 1980s). Is there really a big difference in the way this topic is dealt with? I don't remember feeling that it was handled...
