Ever wanted to celebrate being a Mermaid? How about for a full day! For International Mermaid Day, I decided to organise a gathering of Mermaids from all over Sydney, Australia in order to shell-ebrate our day! We had two swims, a photoshoot and a Mermaid circle where we all shared “What brings you joy as a Mermaid?”
Here is just a snippet of our fun-filled day!
“Always be yourself. Unless you can be a Mermaid, then be a Mermaid.”
Originally from Oregon, Mermaid Lauren is a digital designer + illustrator now living in Sydney, Australia. Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, she spent her childhood swimming in waterfalls, learning about the world of Faeries and dreaming about being a Mermaid. When she isn't doing beach clean-ups with her local environmental groups or swimming in the ocean with friends, you can find her drawing comics about her adventures as a mermaid here. She also loves baby bunnies, Sailor Moon and bubble tea.
