Survey: Steam or Sauna?

031708steamsauna.jpgIf you could have either a steam room or a sauna in your home, which would it be? We just want to be warm, that's all. As for you?

I already have a steam room. I call it my shower.

Sauna = Finnish for "steam bath"
If you want it steamy, pour water on the rocks

Having lived in Estonia, I long for the day I own my house so I can have a sauna. They are fantastic.

I love the way a sauna smells!

Especially when you pour beer on the rocks...then it smells like you're inside an oven cooking a loaf of bread.

Budfox2, you hit the nail on the head. I have a sauna in my flat and just whack loads of water on to get it steamy.

Akino Luna, not heard the beer one before, I usually use essential oils to chillout!!!!

Having been fortunate enough to live in homes with both during my life (spoiled, I know), I have to say I prefer the sauna.
