    I love talking with kids in that phase. The raw curiosity and interest in the mundane is so refreshing.

    Sometimes I feel like many adults hate to learn new stuff and even get offended by the idea. It’s heartbreaking seeing those interact with inquisitive children, when they answer honest curiosity with indifference or worse anger.

    The US has pretty good tap water in most places. Of course there are outliers we are talking about a giant country.

    While you are right to trust most tap water in Europe we also have a lot of outliers. Old plumbing being probably the biggest problem. But also the taste can be atrocious. The worst tasting tap water I ever needed to drink was in Barcelona.

    Edit: and the worst looking tap water I ever saw was in Paris. (It was old pipes or something as it was brown, almost red)
