Clean and well-tasting tap water. It sucks when I'm going to another country and they have chlorinated tap water

Where in the world?

We have clean water in Austria, directly from the mountains without adding anything (just cleaning it with UV light to kill potential bacteria in most regions, nothing else. Not even that in some regions).

Some of the best and cleanest water worldwide, so whenever I go to another country I'm disappointed by their water quality.

Swede here who frequents Austria. I agree, and I love drinking the water while hiking in Austria.

If you visit Sweden, our water is mostly as good as the one in Austria. Some exceptions are Gotland because of high chalk (so? "Kalk") levels.

How's the water in the Netherlands, out of curiosity? If you've been there, that is. Or Belgium, maybe.

I haven't thought about that jingle in years (decades?) but it came back instantly. And now it won't leave.
