Mermaiding: Fun with Fins in Cuba

The first time I did mermaiding in the Philippines a couple of years ago. I was so taken by it that I wanted to try it again. As soon as I had bought a mermaid tail online, I could entertain myself on any beach. Recently, I managed to swim in Cuba, off the island of Cayo Guillermo. This is an absolutely ridiculous pastime, but it brings me great pleasure. Sometimes, I’m a bit lazy to drag the mermaid tail along on a trip because it’s quite bulky and you can’t pack it in a suitcase, but it weighs very little and is not difficult to carry around.

  • My first trip to Paris was 5 years ago. When I saw Paris I knew –I was familiar with that city; I always imagined it exactly like it was – romantic, beautiful, magical, stylish, and very inspiring. It was love from the first sight, and now, after many years and many trips, I still feel like a little girl, who wants to laugh and dance in the street when I step on the land of Paris.

  • Mui Ne, known as the adrenaline capital of southern Vietnam, attracted us not with its surfing opportunities, but with its sunsets. We stayed here for a couple of days, enjoying the slow fishing village lifestyle and doing nothing except swimming, sunbathing, walking along the 12 km picturesque beach, and taking lots of pictures.

  • There are places that inspire; the Corinthia Hotel in London is one of them. One look at the luxurious interior of this 21st century grand palace, with high ceilings and a huge chandelier with sparkling cascades of crystals, and you can just picture yourself wearing a glamorous gown, your heels clicking elegantly on the marble floor. You want to look as beautiful as your surroundings, so I packed very carefully for my stay there.

  • A long-short life called ‘summer’ has started! The air is full with warmth, the city is storming with bright colors and at last people have begun smiling without any special reason. Summer is the most suitable season to throw out rules imposed by somebody, to stop analyzing all ‘pro’s and ‘contra’s. It is time to create and misbehave, to let yourself be what you want to be!

  • How many bikinis do you take with you when you travel to tropical destinations? 1? 3? I take at least 10! It is because I never know, which I’ll be in the mood to wear, so my bag is full of little, colorful and sexy swim suits.

  • Go to one of the many coffee plantations on the island and get to know this cute little place while trying the most expensive coffee in the world, Luwak.
