Hey y’all, thanks for your patience! Here’s part 2 of the steamy Russian banya story. XOX

“Bella!” Anya pulled me in to kiss my cheek before handing me a glass of red wine. “Come in, please! Shoes off!” She waved her hand to the shoe rack next to the door. “And take some slippers.” She had a row of fresh hotel slippers next to the shoe rack. Pretty impressive, I thought to myself, if unusual.
“It’s Russian custom,” she said, reading my thoughts. I nodded instinctively, following her through the foyer into the kitchen, where I was greeted by two more incredibly beautiful women in robes and slippers. I noticed suddenly I was the only one actually dressed.
“Everybody, this is Bella, my sauna friend. Bella, this is Karine and Nadia.” Karine and Nadia all waved and smiled at me.
