Mudding it!




At Daecheon beach there is this amazing spa that features a typical Korean sauna/public bath (warm pool, hot pool, cold pool, sauna) with the added features of a salt water pool, a mud pool and a mud-painting station where you paint yourself with sea mud and let it dry, allowing the therapeutic minerals to absorb into your skin before you rinse off and start soaking in the hot and cold pools all over again. It's pretty heavenly!! The men and women are separated in Korean saunas because you do all of this completely in the buff! (strangely it feels pretty normal after the first 10 minutes or so...)
