Cultural Note
In Italian, you 'fare la doccia' (make the shower) rather than 'take' it. Many older Italian apartments have small bathrooms where the shower is a handheld head over the bathtub rather than a separate stall. Water conservation is also more commonly practiced than in some other countries.
