To be honest, I even have this trouble here in the good old US of A...whenever I
travel, I find that the added chemicals in city/hotel water creates problems
with my system (we have a well here at chez Kiri & Phillip). So I always drink
bottled water when traveling. The only exception I make is that I do use ice.
