Going to the restroom in any foreign country can be a cultural experience of epic proportions. There are no shortages of how to flush, how to get the water going at the sink (when in doubt, look down for the foot pedal on the floor) and it's hit or miss whether there will be toilet paper or handsoap (good news! More likely to have toilet paper than handsoap!) There are many occasions where there is not a gender specific restroom and a gent will be in the stall next to the ladies, etc. There are also times, though very rare so please do take a photo when you go in there, that there is a hole in the ground and two raised footbeds for you to stand on and ready, aim, fire. My point in all of this is to prepare you mentally for the world of restrooms and to encourage you to levitate when you can, bring along a small hand sanitizer and it's not a terrible idea to have packets of tissues to carry with you, just in case!
