Lonely Planet made a Facebook post asking people to bust some of the most common travel myths. Someone posted a comment that said “don’t drink the water” which is something I’ve been wondering a lot about. Obviously, I know we can’t drink the water during our travels, but I’ve been wondering whether or not we’d ever get used to it or if we’d be destined to drink bottled water for the next year +.

So, I decided to ask the question. I wasn’t expecting any responses (maybe just a like or two), but I ended up getting 8 comments on the topic. Seems that people have a lot of opinions when it comes to drinking the water in Asia. Anyway, verdict’s in. See below for comments:
