I was around six when I first saw the Disney movie, the Little Mermaid. Since then, I have always had mermaid daydreams even as a grown up! I took a step to realizing my mermaid dreams in 2017 when I first learned how to freedive and skindive. I was so close to it; exploring the deep, swimming with the marine creatures and feeling the ocean envelope me except that I am wearing bi-fins. This year, I was able to take the closest step in making my mermaid dreams come true by finally wearing a mermaid tail during the SSI Try Mermaid with the Pinay Mermaid. Who is the Pinay Mermaid?…
