Happy Belated World Toilet Day Everyone 🙂

I promised most of you that I would post on the necessity of toilet paper in certain areas of China.  For the most part even at the universities in larger cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou there is toilet paper in the bathrooms.  Unfortunately, this luxury has not reached Wuhan.  Therefore, 27 mm and target baby wipes are extremely important.

For those of you who think that I am nuts, the baby wipes that are available here and in the US are too big to be carried around on an everyday basis.  There are issues with space in every backpack and then there is the issue of waste.  Somehow the Target hypo-allergenic baby wipes are perfect for wiping down those grimy surfaces from restaurants to your hands and butt 😛

Now for the 27mm and waste byproduct generation –  I have found that the M size of Vinda paper is perfect for wiping your butt and the S size of Vinda is perfect for the sniffles. Seems odd that 27mm of added paper is so useful but it does mean the difference between a properly wrapped waste package or the extra use of those oh so necessary baby wipes…

For some strange reason the toilet paper rolls seem to create a huge waste of toilet paper, maybe because I tug at the roll too hard and therefore cannot judge how much I am using, but definitely there is a waste issue because of the cardboard roll.  See the Cottonelle commercials with the rolls flooding the streets etc.  Thought about converting to the Vinda method of toilet paper usage when I head back to the U.S. to improve my environmentally friendlier footprint.

Current Mood:  Feeling pretty rested and happy.  Walked along the Yangtze River last night just to see it at night and also to avoid the increase of any more gut fat.  Trying to remain healthy in 2016.  The trip to the Starbucks bathroom reminded me of the forgotten toilet paper post.
