there’s something so primal in how safe and held I feel in the hot tub section of a jimjilbang.
it makes me feel connected to something seemingly small and fleeting and yet so much bigger than myself, starting from long before I was here.
hot spring.
sitting, looking, being.
washing ourselves
washing loved ones.
maybe I’ll see a mother braiding her daughters hair,
maybe I’ll see two friends giggle over gossip
as they share a bottle of lotion.
or maybe I’ll smile
when I lock eyes
with an elderly woman
I see so much of myself in.
maybe today I‘ll put on a pretty outfit,
or perhaps a comfy one.
maybe I’ll run into you again next time—
but probably not—
and then we go home.
and then we go home.

after growing up in LA my whole life hearing about Wi Spa, i finally went for the first time this past week.
there is something so special and ancient about getting naked together to clean ourselves. i feel this way when i listen to live music at a bar, i think about how long people have been doing this activity for and it fills me with this sense of pride and joy i relish because it’s rare to feel so good about being human. it’s nice to feel a part of a thousands of years long legacy
i’m heavily tattooed and hairy so i was nervous about being naked but no one was judgmental or strange, all the opposite. i saw every kind of person of every age and size and identity. i even made a friend in the hot tub! it felt good to have my naked body feel so casual, so understated. all the amenities were incredible. the massage i got was out of this world and so worth the price (always tip!!) oh and the food in the cafe was delicious!!! all in all it was a perfect night that i will be forever grateful for ❤️
.5 photo gave me 5head 😀
