There’s only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that’s your own self. – Aldous Huxley Wensha Spa is the newly open branch located in Antipolo. They also have branches in Timog Quezon City and Pasay. Anong kinalaman ng quote,you might be wondering.Actually wala lang.Pang decor lang,hehe I don't party.I don't drink.I don't do drugs.But I have my obsessions and one of them is massage or spa.I haven't treat myself for such a long time and I have been ranting about it when Verms suggested we try Wensha in Antipolo.At the mention of the name,I had my violent reaction already because I know that we have to be bare naked to enjoy the hot pool and the steam bath and sauna.And being Verms,she talked me out again about trying something new and the next thing I know,I agreed.I don't know how she always do that to me... :) It was a package deal.It covers 6 hours that consists of unlimited use of Jacuzzi, Spa, Sauna, Buffet, and a service that you want to (Foot Spa, Body Massage, Facial, etc))Anyways,I'm so glad she did because I didn't have any regrets after. I had so much fun and six hours full relaxation. We got there 6pm.Too bad we didn't have the chance to see the beautiful sunset.But we've managed to take a photo of the spot and it's very beautiful.The place alone is very impressive.It stands on a spot over looking Manila and the sides of Antipolo so it's really perfect for sight seeing specially at night time. It was our first time so we can't stop giggling.It's good thing,the receptionists are very helpful and patient.In fact,we are not so sure what to do first but Verms is a fast learner so she guided me. First,we took shower.After it, we tried Jacuzzi for 15 minutes followed by hot steam then dry sauna.We have ice cubes with us .We are not suppose to overstay so we have to be time conscious.After our sauna we headed for an hour whole body massage then dinner.It's all up to you what to do first.I think it's always better to go for a massage then food after.The soothing effect is incredible. I have enjoyed everything but I enjoyed the hot steam more.It's very relaxing.At first it felt like suffocating but it's a matter of adjusting your breathing pattern to be able to enjoy. I'm also so thankful that we were there as early as six in the evening because we had the whole place to our self.It was really very refreshing.The massage is really heavenly.As in it felt really good.If only I can moan as loud as I can I would but I'd rather keep it low to save face :) I personally find the locker key cool because you'll have to wear it like a bracelet.It's also impressive because it can manage to be both in the cold and hot temperature.If you want to open your locker,you have to put it in the hole and the locker will automatically open. After massage,we went for dinner. The buffet is typical but it's very healthy.It's mostly veggies and salads so of course it's a celebration for me.There's no fish so we opted for vegetable soup and bbq. I did the vege soup while Verms did the BBQ.I'm really beyond amazed because you can just cook your own food at your own choice on your own taste.You just need assistance.You might need to ask for portable gas stove for your table,the grilling pan and the ready made soup for the vegetable. It's not only the electronic gadget that impressed me but also the portable stoves.I didn't know that there are actually portable gas stove like this and it's so cute and creative of them.However,turning it on and off can also be challenging. I'm really famished so I ate a lot! Plus we are really such in a perfect place.We asked permission if we can have our dinner at the bar,opposite of the dinning area and we choose a dim place where the table is set perfectly on the side over looking Manila.The sight is very beautiful at night.It's like thousands of fireflies scattered all over the place. We were really craving for a cup of coffee after dinner but unfortunately,they don't have any.So we thought we could try Cafe Lupe.It's just located upstairs as it's one the same building. Our order surprised us both in a funny and not so funny way.Verms' coffee was served in a very small cup.I can imagine it's a dwarfs tea cup while I ordered Mexican coffee without any idea what it is until I was informed before serving that it's 50% coffee and 50% tequila.Since it's my first time and I don't have any idea that Tequila can actually be mixed with coffee, I think it's a perfect order and experience for me for the night. Imagine how surprise we both are.We're expecting a cup of coffee but apparently,they are serve per gulp I think :) So as a remedy,Verms ordered another cup of brewed coffee,mix it with her first order and it does tasted good.We stayed there til almost midnight and was able to go home past one in the morning. Another first time in such a long time.First time to be naked in a public pool.(Tip:be there early to avoid the crowd) First time to be in Wensha.First time to have my first shot of Tequila with coffee. Such experiences and form of relaxation is worthwhile.It's just good time with a good friend and enjoying the freshness and beauty of Antipolo and things that it can offer. I realized,when you're working days really gone so fast and while you have the time to enjoy,grab the opportunity.While you are still young and single & enjoy life.Enjoy the things that makes you happy as long as it doesn't destroy you then go for it.When stressed or burn out at work or at home,I suggest borrow one of your favorite person in the world and then do something that's worthwhile together. Thanks all to Verms for taking care of everything.The booking of the ticket and for the one million watt laughter.For the experience and for the fun time! I owe you again big time! SALUD!!!
