Don’t you hate it when you are travelling and you are dying to have a shower only to arrive and find that the space is a mess and instead of feeling clean you are left feeling as if you should bathe in Dettol disinfectant solution. Here are a few tips to keep in mind the next time you are sharing such spaces with other travellers.
1. Be clean and tidy, do not leave you hair all over the sink, wash your shoes in the basin and leave all the soil lingering around the basin.
2. Can we be extra careful when we share space with others? Use your slops just for showering, don’t use the same slops you walk the streets with in the showers.
3. Can some Americans please refrain from brushing their teeth in the Kitchen sink! We use that sink to wash the dishes. I have only ever encountered Americans doing this, I don’t know if it’s the norm back home but in South Africa it considered onbeskof (loosely translated in means highly unbecoming/crude)
Trash is not cool, the bins in the bathroom should only be used for tissues and other bathroom related trash. |
4. If you tinkle on the seat kindly wipe it off. Nothing worse than running to the toilet and as you are about to place your bottom on the seat you notice urine. At that point your bladder is on fire and you cursing the stars for people who do not check after they are done on the pot.
5. If it’s yellow let it mellow but if it’s bordering on looking like an African sunset set please just flush it away.
6. Make sure that you flush properly; I don’t want to know what you had for supper yesterday.
7. Leave it tidy and clean or at least as you found it.
