An old Italian advertising said: "The water is all the same, as long as it is in the sky."
I omit the topic because it is not just water to drink I want to talk, but one where we do the swim in the sea or in lakes, rivers or swimming pools.
Despite my holidays up almost entirely to the sea, say openly that I do not like salt water. They give me too much bother the grains of salt that to me remain on my body.
So much so that if I go to a beach without equipped with showers, are forced to take below 2 bottles of fresh water to rinse before get dressed.
I do not have this problem instead when I take a bath in fresh water (note: lakes, swimming pools, rivers, etc.).
But I must say that the sea water (ie the salt) is lighter and I can stay afloat more easily. nothing compared to that of such pools where I swim really exhausted.

My dad once told me a long time ago that it was so much easyer swimming in salt water than a regular swimming pool. SO I tryed it and it really is true, it is so much lighter to swim in salt water....

Yes, you're right. For this thing I have experienced it myself. Swimming in salt water (sea water), it is much easier than the "heavy" fresh water.

I am not much of a water person plus i do not know how to swim 
i love going to the beach as the place is picturesque... and it is nice to take pictures by the sea..as for pools.. i do not like them that much as if there are too many people, it tends to crowd too much, not that fun.. lol but i have not tried swimming in the lakes or river. I always have apprehension in those places lol like what if the lake has some monster fish in it lol or piranhas.. this is due to me watching too much discovery channel river monster episodes

Well, from what I could tell by your answer, you just emphasized the fact that it is not at all a "person of fresh water"!
Maybe your fear is due to the presence of fish as a piranha in the rivers.
In Italy there are not many rivers, but three large main lakes of the country.
