Onsen Quotes

“Night bathing feels different to that done in the early morning. More meditative, a time to reflect rather than refresh. Enveloped in warm, still water, with just the scent of witch hazel or winter jasmine carried by the steam, the body, if not the spirit, feels at prayer.”
― Nigel Slater, A Thousand Feasts: Small Moments of Joy… A Memoir of Sorts
