I’ve never in my life been on the more hygienic side of things. I’m a barely functional mess of adhd and autism that launched itself into grad school in a new country. I don’t wear socks more than 36 hours (if I put them on at 4pm, I’ll still wear them the next day, but otherwise no).
So, probably do every day if you want to be on the safe side
From the US to Germany. I think daily sock changes are standard in both places
Hey I'm looking at doing the same- what'd you go to grad school for?
German as a foreign language instruction, so I can teach integration courses. I’ve been here for several years (including some during my undergrad), and am really integrated and fluent (C2, with a bachelors in German) though, so that won’t work for most people right away 😅
What did you do your bachelors in?
