小潘: Teacher Liu, yesterday I found there was no toilet paper in the subway restroom, and it was really awkward.
刘娜: Yes, in many public toilets in China, especially in subways, parks, and old neighborhoods, usually no paper is provided, so people are used to bringing their own tissues.
小潘: I see. In Vietnam, public toilets in cities usually give you toilet paper if you pay a small fee, and some restaurants or malls provide it for free.
刘娜: Right, I’ve heard that in some places in Vietnam, staff give you paper at the entrance, but in most places in China, even in pay toilets, sometimes there’s no paper.
小潘: I looked it up online, and many people traveling to China recommend always carrying tissues with you.
刘娜: Yes, you can carry a pack of tissues with you from now on so you won’t have the same problem again.
小潘: Good idea. I’ll definitely bring some next time, that way I’ll feel more at ease.
刘娜: Yes, this is also part of understanding the daily habits of different countries.
小潘: Yeah, I didn’t expect such small things could reflect cultural differences.
