Hello Hive account@smallsasha! First of all, let me congratulate you on your courage to do all the travels and divings! You must be a brave person.
It took me some time to read your post but I am not regretting it. You're writing about a world I'm not familiar with and I had the chance to learn a lot about it by reading your post.
I have a bit aquaphobic, I can swim but I don't think I would be able to dive ever. Ice diving must be hard but wonderful in the same time. The photos are absolutely stunning!
The sauna ritual sounds familiar, I've seen it in the movies but I can't remember in which one.
I'm glad you got a curie vote for this wonderful post, you totally deserve it. I would also recommend using the ocd-resteem tag next time, they are rewarding good quality content and yours is definitely high quality.
I'm going to follow you and read your other posts as you are writing about interesting things :)
Congratulations and keep up the good work!
