Hello everyone hope you're all doing well. This entry goes out to all of the beautiful women who read this blog. This weekend I had a pretty cool experience, one that was definitely unusual, crazy, and fun. I went with my good friend Jen to a Jin-Jeh Bong, which is somewhat similar to a sauna. It had 5 different pools that had jets, and chairs, and each pool had a different temperature ranging from 64 degrees to 107 degree pool. There were three sauna rooms ranging from 100 degrees to 180 degrees (which I definitely did not try, haha). You might be thinking, cool a nice sauna/hot tub action is always fun, but there was something really different about this place . . . you are naked! Yes completely naked, no towels, no shoes, no little swimsuit or coverup, just the birthday suit! I walked into this beautiful Grecian inspired locker room, and immediatly became giggly and nervous seeing many nude women just walking around. It was time for me to de-robe. It took me a couple of seconds to comprehend that I had to take off all my clothes, I kept thinking "really? everything?" This was quite awkward and nerve racking for me, but I had to do it. While I was having a little panic session I saw about 10 other women walk by with no worries, so I decided to go for it. I walked into the sauna area completely nude with about 30 or more Korean women walking, showering, soaking as if this is completely normal. First we scrubbed in the showers (no doors of course, haha) and then hopped into one of the huge hot tubs (I'll remind you it's a pool size hot tub). It was very beautiful and clean in there and while I was self conscious about not only being naked but being a foreigner who is naked (Korean stare more at you when you're a foreigner), I found myself walking really fast and tense like. Once I sat down near the jets and finally relaxed I realized this was something so unique and so special. I am just chilling with 30 other women ranging from age 3 - 60+ (yes children, teenagers, and young adults too) in the nude and it felt extremely invigorating and surprisingly comfortable. I am pretty self conscious when it comes to my body, but sitting there seeing all of the realistic bodies types, shapes, sizes and relaxed women was a wonderful reminder of how we should be able to appreciate our bodies and be more comfortable in our own skin. I felt more relaxed than I thought I ever could. It's not just that women were sitting and sulking, they were conversing like they were having dinner and scrubbing each other like they would to their own child. And when they scrubbed I mean they really scrubbed hard and thorough, haha. It was nice going with a good friend to talk with and overall it was a positive and an eye-opening experience to say the least, haha. I never thought I would be able to do something like this but after the initial naked shock I found it cleansing, relaxing, and interesting haha. We tried a couple of other pools (the cold one was great) and then topped it off in the sauna where it looked out to the ocean, beautiful view. There was even a pool outside you could go to and be naked outside overlooking the ocean, but we left that for another day. I definitely want to go again, Erin are you interested when you come in 2 weeks? Just wanted to share this cool and unique experience with you all.
here's to beautiful naked bodies!
