How do you breath? I assume everyone inhale the air by mouth. What about exhaling? By nose or mouth? I exhale by mouth because I think if i use nose to exhale I'll tend to use nose to inhale as well. I think I should never close my mouth so that I will never happen to breathe with my nose underwater. Those of you who exhale by nose, do you keep your mouth open nontheless?

OK, so "Thorpe" exhales by nose :)
The reason I use only mouth for both exhale and inhale is that this way my mouth will always be open, so no chance of breathing in water from nose. If I have to change from exhaling by mouth to inhaling by nose I fear that sometimes I may either open my mouth too late or forget it so will get water into my nose. Wouldn't that be easier if you don't have to make changes between using nose and using mouth? But it looks like no one has had this issue?
