[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]+1. I noticed that too and figured that PP has never even been to Asia! We live in Japan and you take your shoes off in the entry, neatly place them in a designated spot, and [b]wear slippers provided by the host (who keeps a basket of various sizes in the entry).[/b] I shudder to think of the giant centipedes, banana spiders, and cockroaches that could take up residence if PP's imaginary Asian scenario were actually true!

Are you saying that guests wear slippers that other guests have worn? I have to admit I would be hesitant to put my feet in slippers that other people have worn, it doesn't seem terribly hygienic.

Do you purchase shoes from stores?  Are you aware that other people have probably tried those shoes on before you?  And those people are strangers, not even the friends and family of your hosts, upon whom you can presumably count to throw out or at least wash the shoes worn by uncle bob during his outbreak of toe fungus.[/quote]
