I got a Tushy during COVID mostly because I was bored and figured I'd give it a try.
One of the best purchases I've ever made.
congrats, that's genuinely great to hear!
I felt the same way after my first bidet use in Thailand.
i was like what? WHAT? toilet hygiene already exists!? why are the cavemen using paper!?
yup! When I go on vacation I miss my dogs and tushy.
i might have a little revelation for you: the backwoods bidet.
use a lighter to heat up a fork tine, press the first 2 mm of the tine right under the lip of the flange under the cap to make a small 2x1mm hole, fill the bottle with water, flip upside down and squeeze.
instant bidet.
i am not joking, it has completely changed how I travel since now I can travel to any country and not be irritated by the lack of a bidet.
plastic bottle, small hole near the top, fill with water, pressure water bidet by squeezing the bottle.
revolutionary.
I actually have a $10 thing I travel with called a "Happy Po." Just a water bottle with a twist on nozzle.

Works OK, but not the same.
Plus for more magic marker poops, you might need to get up and refill it. Although when I was in Italy, I could refill from the tub while on the toilet.
