Yup, I have known a few people like this.

In Japan where there are many volcanoes and lots of Hot Springs
this has been made reality. Many small cities and town depend on
geothermal water and make lots of money. One island features beaches
of hot sand where people immerse themselves for supposed health
benefits.

In New Zealand, the area around Rotorua* has a lot of thermal activity.
People relax in the hot pools and mud baths, food is cooked in
in-ground pits (called hangi in Maori) or boiled in the hot water, etc.
- some of the water and mud pools are literally boiling, so people
cannot swim in them. The main problem is that all the sulphur means it
can stink like rotten eggs.
* Nicknamed "Rotovegas", although it's nothing like America's Las Vegas.
