Chocolate and the Mud

Diamond and Chocolate are testing fangotherapy... or mud application.... This technique of care using baths and applications of mud raises to the antiquity and is recognized for its healing virtues, both for the well-being and for a medical custom. Some types of fango have also anti-inflammatory effect and help against soft-tissue ailments. The clay benefits on the skin through drawing out the impurities and supporting the natural exfoliation, after which the skin is left smooth and gentle.We went to the Spa Les Thermes Marins des Cascades in the Hotel La RĂ©sidence des Cascades in Egypt. We must say that is it really crazy as our skin became smooth.... like silk... hmmm And you know how Chocolate like that!! She loves to be pampered... Chocolate insisted to show you her new passion.. Let's discover it on the pics.

Viva Italia: Apulia here we come!!!!!!


Torre Coccaro is a Masseria built not far from the sea whose origins date from the XVI century. Surrounded by antique olive trees, almond trees and carobs, this tower, once a stronghold against the Turks, has now become a five star resort where Diamond and Chocolate have chosen to spend some time... to medidate in this peaceful place. What we really like? We like the amazing food, the beautiful Orange Garden Suite with its own pool... hey hey you know how chocolate like to be tanned!!!









And what Diamond and Chocolate really like also is.... A beautiful SPA!!!!!!
Entirely carved in stone, Torre Coccaro spa epitomises the importance of nature by using wood and rice paper, and overlooking plants and secular olive trees. It is fitted with a big technogym, heated swimming pool, whirlpool and Turkish baths using eucalypt oil. THE SOINS - all the treatments performed here use herbs and organic fruits picked up in AVEDA lands. Musk, yucca, true aloe, camomile, lime, exotic fruits, officinal herbs and personalised essential oils are used for plant therapies aimed at suiting your needs.
