If you're intrigued by the Turkish Baths, check out this new review of Miraj Hammam Spa in Vancouver. The hammam is a centuries-old experience that is being revived around the world, and Sue Frause and her girlfriend have a very entertaining afternoon getting thoroughly steamed, scrubbed and purified. "Going solo is fine, but the spa makes for a great girl getaway," reports Sue. For fun, contrast Sue's experience in sarong and flip-flops with Julie Earle-Levine's trip to a hammam in Istanbul, where she has to communicate everything in sign language.
