Should you swim in a foreign country?

Published by youthfoutain under travel Edit This

You should not swim or use any of the water recreational parks in a foreign country because it’s not sanitary and it’s filled with many bacterias and viruses. The water parks, beach, lake, river, and pool are not maintain as much as it should be. They don’t treat these areas like the US do. They don’t use chlorine or other chemical to treat these areas like we do in America. Chances are you’ll get very sick if you drink or swim in these places.

You can observe it but don’t jump into it right away. It’s not recommended. Many travelers don’t have a clue and they’ll just do what feels good but they’ll get sick. You can get diarhea, infections in the eyes, ears, noses and respiratory problems if you use their water. The water back at your hotel can be a little better though. Asia is one of those places with really bad and contaminated water.
