    interesting. we had our own well when i grew up, and i’ve had allergic reactions to chlorinated water before so i’m super sensitive to it. i remember the water tasting off in london and eastern germany but it doesn’t at home and it didn’t when i visited austria. last time i was in north america and unprepaired for the tap water, it made me gag.

      Austria is where I’m from :) yeah England and Germany aren’t too bad, I taste the chlorine, but I’ll still drink the water. I begrudgingly opted for bottled water in North America too, though. Couldn’t handle it. Even the chlorine smell during a shower was annoying, I had never noticed that anywhere else.
