Here in the Philippines it is part of our culture to bathe or shower every day no matter what the weather is. I'm just curious about other people's culture regarding bathing or showering. Can you tell me what the common practice in your country is?

In China, we often have bathe or shower one time a day, but somebody ,sometime may have two to three times a day, it's all depend. I often take a shower after I take exercise, and ,If I have an important appointment ,I also take it.

Hi there Angela Joy! We are from the same country so we pretty much have the same custom in bathing or shower. I take a shower once a day, sometimes, if the weather's too hot, I shower twice. Once in the morning and in the evening before I sleep so I can sleep more comfortably, feeling refreshed.

Hi angelajoy! Well i'm from the Philippines too so i guess you know that people here bath/shower everyday. Especially now that it's summer, i guess people here are taking a bath at least two times a day. We're in a tropical country so it's kind of humid here sometimes so the best way to beat the heat is to take a shower. I guess it helps take out the dirt and dust that our body accumulated outdoors especially on a busy street.

Well,an interesting question.As far as know,that mostly depends on the weather condition and individual habit.I do not think there is some kind of culture about bathe in our culture.Actually speaking,people also change their habit sometimes according to their own business.Eg,as to my knolege,the frequence in winter and summer are quite different for some people including me.Mybe in your area things change in some sense.
