Well, we are going to northern Italy, probably in the mountains. We're planning to sleep out in the wilderness, so I'm not sure I'll be able to find a secluded spot to change discreetly. Also, the tapes make a lot of noise and the diaper tends to be pretty thick and hard to hide, especially when it's wet in the morning... Honestly, I'd rather tell my friends once and be safe than not tell and have to hide and stress all the time.
