We went into Seoul this weekend for a “Dr. Fish” experience and I don’t mean a nice seafood meal. It’s a place where you put your feet in a small pool of water and little fish (with teeth!) swarm around your feet and eat the dead skin. It is in a really nice like café. You go in and have coffee or tea and then do the foot thing. I was really looking forward to it and REALLY wanted to do it, but to be perfectly honest...it completely freaked me out. It was really creepy. They lure you in there with the cool coffee shop, playing nice soft music, etc. and you think you’re going to have this wonderful spa-type experience and then, next thing you know...the fish are eating your feet!! I could actually feel what seemed like millions of little mouths (with teeth!) chewing on my feet. They give you a 15 minute time limit and I think I had my feet in for about 10 minutes of that time. That was plenty. I think they give you the time limit because if you go much longer you may end up with bloody stumps instead of feet!!! Now that it's over, I feel like I wimped out a little bit. I may go back and try it again….possibly after having something a little stronger than coffee!
