Mersea in Mexico
From the moment you step off the airplane and smell the salty air... to the second your toes touch the sand. Mersea is with you every step of the way as they truly embody the spirit of vacation. The warm sun on your skin, the ocean breeze blowing through your messy hair and those lazy afternoon siestas. Travel touches your senses in so many ways, usually making memories that last a lifetime. The most memorable adventures are always the ones that touch your 5 senses in some way, shape or form. From tasting spicy foods in foreign lands, to the smells of a local perfumery or simply listening to the ocean as you fall asleep. But for some there is an unspoken 6th sense... a “Feeling” that takes place when you’re experiencing something special for the first time. The feeling that sweeps over your body and soul in an unmistakable way creating those happy, carefree “Mersea Moments”. So I would like to say thank you, merci and gracias for all the perfect little moments on each and every journey.

The Mersea Bath
Photography Paul Versluis
Immersing yourself in water to cleanse the body and spirit is definitely not a new concept. For centuries, cultures from all over the world have used baths as a form of therapeutic relaxation. From Turkish Hamams and Japanese Onsens, to Thermaes in Ancient Rome. There is nothing more deeply healing to calm the mind and purify the body than a steamy soak. Mer-Sea has everything you need to customize your own toasty bath this winter. You can make the experience truly yours with a variety of their bath salts, candles, lotions and body washes. I like to add a few personal touches, such as my favorite book, dry brush (to detoxify) and a cozy robe. Finish with one of Mer-Sea's yummy misting oils (my favorite is the coconut and salt water) or a hydrating body butter during dry winter months. You have been taking care of everyone else all year and now it's time to spoil yourself. So as the temperatures drop and the holidays are upon us, let yourself unwind with your own personal Mer-Sea bath ritual.
