Hi! I’m Rui, one of those rare ‘Tropical Mermaids’—the ones who usually stay close to coral reefs in warm waters. We’re known to lead pretty pampered lives, but I love the idea of experiencing a little bit of everything.

She’d look around, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

I may be in a wheelchair up here, but underwater, I promise I’m just as agile as any mermaid! It’s wonderful to meet you—I’m really excited to share this space with you!
