Yesterday was my second visit to the banya. The beautiful banya. It's a magical place that weasels its way into your soul and wrings it until you are pure and feel like god has kissed you on the forehead. We Banya Babes rented a private room that includes a sauna, cold pool, shower, and a couple rooms to relax, chat, eat, etc. You go between the hot sauna and cold pool to totally refresh and rejuvenate your body. Also, if you want to be best friends for life with someone, you ask them to hit you with a birch branch to help your circulation. The whole banya experience is perfect for bonding, feeling good mentally and physically, and sleeping like a baby that night.
If someone has not been to the banya, I will talk that shit up until they go to the banya.
This weekend will be an exciting one of festivities to welcome the beginning of spring (which is what pancake week is technically about, but I wholeheartedly emphasize the pancake part). I will definitely post about my welcoming of the new season on Sunday night : )
