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.

  • I’d never heard about Benidorm until I actually went there; and now I am absolutely in love with it. Being the main tourist destination along Costa Blanca, it is completely different from other popular resort towns along the Mediterranean Sea coast of Spain. It has it all: traces of traditional Spain, combined with bar-lined promenades along beautiful and clean beaches, and a lively nightlife.

  • 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.

  • Phuket is a popular destination for tourists and the perfect place for photography. I spent 6 years on this beautiful island and wanted to have something special as memories I can take home with me. I do have many pictures with vintage backgrounds of Phuket Old Town and crystal clear waters of Phuket beaches, but professional photo shooting made me feel special and save this special moment forever.

  • It was the most beautiful morning in my life. It was July. I was amidst the white city, saturated with bright rays of the Sun, with somehow very special French laughter, wafting from the neighboring house balcony, with wine and cheese at nine in the morning, with tunes from "Amelie" and a small, tender lump of happiness inside me ... Because my dream finally came true.
