Geez.... all this talk has me missing these Sauna Worlds... probably time to head back to Europe.
My best experience was at an alpine wellness spa in Austria. Sitting with my feet in a cold soak a man woman and their 16-18 year old daughter show up in robes. Robes come off and they are all in swim suits.... I thought, oh that makes sense. Next thing you know dad drops his shorts and is fully nude. Next Mom and daughter lose their tops (the young girl was truly perfect) and I thought wow, this is really happening. Then the bottoms came off and I felt my heart rate increase. This girl was so perfectly smooth from head to toe that I was left I'm sure with my jaw on the floor. By the way I'm sitting on the ground and they walked over to hooks right in front of me so I certainly didn't feel the need to turn away. Anyways the three of them went and crammed in a 2 person infrared sauna and then I had to leave.
It was at this point I realized just how extreme the cultural differences are...
