🎙️ The Price of Everything

Believe it or not, the cost of taking a shower can vary dramatically worldwide.

Denmark takes the cake as the most expensive place to shower, with the estimated cost of a year’s worth of showers eclipsing $800 🇩🇰

Across 89 countries, the average annual cost to shower is about $260, which is just below the U.S. average of $264.

💭 The more you know, right?
