Curiosity only.

Here in Brazil it's very common to have several showers a day. I, for example, take two. The first is when I wake up, before I go to work, and the second is when I get home from work. I wake up at 6.30am and get home at 8pm.

edit: I said bath, but I meant shower.

The last bath I took was probably at least ten years ago. (Not counting swimming in a lake or pool or anything like that)

By bath do you mean washing yourself in general, or the act of sitting in a tub of water?

The US has more of a shower culture than a bath culture. I haven’t taken a bath in over a decade, but I shower after my daily exercise.

Not the person you are responding to, but here in the US, we typically don't take baths and instead shower. I usually only take a bath if I am sick and want to soak in warm water to relax.
