How do I make sure I can find restrooms when travelling?
Here are some tips for finding the restrooms, and planning your trip so you’re never without one.
- If you’re taking a car trip, contact tourist boards or an auto club to find
- restrooms on your route.
- Obtain a good map of the city you’re visiting, and make a note of areas
- that may have public restrooms: tourist info centers, shopping malls, hotels, and restaurants.
- Be sure your travel companions are aware of your condition and ask them to scout for restrooms for you.
- If all else fails, don’t be afraid to ask to use the restroom in a shop or other establishment even if there is no public one available. A polite request and an explanation that you are feeling ill usually does the trick even if there is only a staff toilet.
- Learn how to ask for the restroom in the native language.
- Some countries have pay toilets, so be sure to have change on hand just in case.
- Carry extra tissues or wet wipes in case there is no toilet paper available (this tip is important whether you’re traveling across the world or just to your local supermarket).
- Many public restrooms aren’t clean or well-stocked. Carry a travel pack containing extra undergarments and trial sizes of toilet seat covers, wet wipes, antibacterial hand wash, extra toilet paper, and anything else you might need. If you need to make a dash for the toilet, you can just grab your bag and be off.
