I always feel like the hands-free bidet is sneaking up on me, I prefer the control and manual aim/pressure of the gun.

Ehhhhh, kinda difficult to pick.

I have both in my house, in different bathrooms. Hands free is nice because it's all lazy and easy, but it actually takes longer by a little bit.

The handheld is faster, and has a nice massage effect. However, there's more overspray, even with the kind I have that's focused rather than just a repurposed sink sprayer like I've run into, and tried.

So I think I err on the side of handheld overall, but I have used seat based ones that had a lot of settings that were really nice, like oscillating spray, pulses, etc. They aren't just about it being nice, they make the job quicker too, countering the flaw most of them have.

i think i err on the side of convenience as well, but i couldn't agree more with how fun a dozen settings are

I remember my first time in the tokyo airport bathroom, they have hands free bidets and i conservatively spent 15 minutes after business time experimenting with the functions.

Yeah, the first fancy bidet I ran across, I was the same way. It was at a friend's house, and they were giving me hell about playing with it after I was in there for a good twenty minutes.

How can you not try everything out?

FAQ


are there requirements to be an ESL teacher other than being a fluent English speaker?

nope.

some countries and schools require a TEFL certificate or prefer candidates with an associate's degree depending on the position, but if you want to teach English, all you need is to be a fluent English speaker.


how can you afford to travel long-term?

The cost of living in most countries is around $500 USD a month for transportation, rent, utilities and food altogether; teaching English pays $2000 USD a month with zero qualifications or experience.

every month I taught English, I had a few extra months of my cost of living.

I taught English for about 7 years.

as long as you're making more than 500 USD a month remotely in any job, you can travel long-term.


What's the best country?

Depends on what you're looking for.

For backpacking, Japan. For natural history museums, Ireland. For food, China. For cost of living, Cambodia or India.
