<p>We are wandering around Netherlands (on foot, hitch hiking, bicycle). We don't sleep in camping site, we put our tent anywhere "in the bush".</p>

<p>We are use to travel on this way in Southern Europe but in Netherlands we have trouble finding water (public water tap, public wc / street fountain so we could get water for showering / laundry / cooking.</p>

<p>Until now we only found water tap in cemetery which are not the best place to shower, (especially on "remote" conservative area !). </p>

<p>Until know we could get enough water to cook by asking bars or restaurant but, not enough for the laundry and real shower.</p>

<p>If you live there,  you might know some trick to find those precious water tap. Any other trick than laundry-bathing in smelly/polluted rivers, will be highly appreciated!</p>

<p>For instance in Southern Europe we find water to shower and laundry near churches (often there is tap), public fountain in parks, downtowns, cemeteries, free WC (street, train station). And when we can't manage to find anything  we find a way (last option) in public  WC in library toilet or bigger supermarket.</p>

<p>Notice : we know about warmshowers and couchsurfing website we just like to be independent, and spontaneous interaction and without taking into account that planing in advance would require quite a lot of organization / time / battery (because finding a plug is also quite a challenge: we fund one in a parking today!)</p>

<p>P.s: we know about the app "hoge nood" but it's not available on ios6 </p>
