Despite my coming home yesterday afternoon to find a package of eight new toilet paper rolls hanging from my door (not sure where they came from…), I’d like to respectfully ask my readers to please stop sending me envelopes with regional toilet paper enclosed (Mom, please). As much as I appreciate the consideration and commitment to expanding my observations abroad, I’d rather not receive toilet paper in the mail. Thank you in advance for all future restraint.

For those who are curious though, I’ll share the notes I’ve made/received regarding TP:
Institut Curie, France — one ply, not scratchy but not soft
TGV Train Basel, Switzerland to Paris — a sort of dusty purple, feels like a paper bag
Grand Hotel Les Trois Rois — soft, white, adorned with perforated flowers
Zurich Airport — your average single ply airplane tp
Swiss airplane, Zurich to Delhi — more flowers
Delhi Airport — no perforations, soft, single ply
The Manor Hotel, Delhi — parchment paper
Berlin CityStay Hostel — super thin tissue sized napkins, requires use of at least 10 at a time

If you would like to send me anything or feel like writing, my address is below:

More tomorrow-ish. I’ve got to study for my very first Danish Language quiz! Hej hej. Vi ses!
