## How you would actually start

- Check whether the promise holds

“Ten times saltier than the ocean, so you float without trying. Any cut on your skin will announce itself.” That is the pitch. Spend an hour on first-hand accounts rather than listicles — what it costs, how long it really takes, and what people wish they had known.

- Find the small version first

Somewhere nearer will tell you whether you actually like this kind of trip, for a fraction of the cost.

- Put it somewhere you will see it

An intention you have not written down is a mood. A list you revisit is a decision you keep making.
