Here’s Your Chance to Go to St. Louis, Missouri and Be a Mermaid

It's harder to live out some dreams more than others. For example, most that wanted to be an astronaut as a kid will never live out that dream. But, if you'd like to be a mermaid, that is an experience that's actually possible thanks to a photographer in St. Louis, Missouri.

I saw this unique idea from a photographer named Ondrea (although she says she goes by "Drea") on Airbnb. It's called "Stop adulting, be a mermaid". Here's a snippet of how Drea describes what she does and what you can experience:

My name is Drea, and I'm a mermaid photographer with over 15 years of experience in "traditional" photography!...My true passion, and where my vision really shines, is fantastic realism. I blend the fantasy element of a mermaid tail into a real background with minimal editing, giving you the opportunity to see yourself as the mythical creature you've always known you are, surrounded by the natural beauty of the region.

Let's face it. You just don't get many opportunities to have a photo taken like this.

The experience on Airbnb says that you must be 16 years old or older and bring the following:

• Tight fitting bathing suit bottoms
• A Towel
• Sunscreen
• Bug spray
• Water
• A top, if the provided tops are not your style

According to what Drea has shared on Airbnb, you can become a mermaid for $350 per group as of this writing.
