Retiring in Guatemala? FIX THIS Bathroom Problem First!

If you’re retiring in Guatemala—or anywhere in Latin America—you’ll quickly discover a bathroom custom that can take some getting used to: most plumbing systems can’t handle flushing toilet paper. Instead, locals keep a waste basket next to the toilet where used paper goes… and yes, that means dealing with smelly bathrooms.

Living with IBS or Crohn’s makes this even harder. But here’s the good news: a simple toilet upgrade can make all the difference. In this episode of *Dying to Retire*, I’ll show you why a bidet, like the Kohler PureWash model, is a game-changer for comfort, health, and hygiene.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

✔️ Why toilet paper goes in the trash (not the bowl) in Guatemala
✔️ How a bidet keeps your bathroom fresh and odor-free
✔️ The health benefits for retirees (especially with IBS or Crohn’s)
✔️ Why every expat or slow traveler should consider this upgrade

I’m just a retired guy on the road to Guatemala residency, exploring what life abroad really looks like. Trust me—nothing ruins a dream retirement home faster than a smelly bathroom.
