Garra Rufa

Something was tickling, nibbling, working it's way through dead skin, desperately searching for food. I loved it! Garra Rufa, also know as doctor fish or nibbling fish, is a diminutive species of dully coloured fish that gently removes dead skin from your body, and eats bacteria and dirt that are on you feet, which isn't what the companies will tell you, because they want you to think the fish eat the dead skin. After walking around the Plaza Singapura mall, which is just one train stop over from Little India, getting our lunch/breakfast (Isaac took a full hour to choose!) our feet were sore. Accidentally going to the wrong outlet of the spa first, only to find they didn't have the fish, didn't help. Then we were there. The Kenko Fish Spa at the Singapore Flyer! Our feet were washed, and then we placed them into a run full of nibbling, tickling, Garra Rufa for half an hour. Paradise.
