Answering Naturism’s Call. (Naturism in Thailand)

Having just returned from Thailand, and looking forward to visiting another new naturist resort near Pattaya in the coming weeks, this article from a couple years ago gives an optimistic overview of what we might expect regarding the development of naturist destinations in Southeast Asia. We’re quite a long ways from “topless on the beach” […]

A brief article that makes all the points familiar to most people who have already come to grips with embracing their own nudity, but well stated in a concise and compelling way.

Naked Europe covers up

So I think this post is going to set the foundation for another blog post on my other site, The Meandering Naturist, as my personal opinion is that it’s only telling one side of the story. But coming from The Economist, I think this is a real important document that is likely to influence a […]

How to travel: what to pack for a naturist resort break

I have a friend who has recently gotten into naturism who stated bluntly, “You know, somebody should write a naturism for beginner’s page so you don’t feel like an idiot the first time out!” Actually, I think that’s been done quite a lot, but I think this article does it particularly well, thoughtfully omitting most […]

Would you let your friends see you naked?

An interesting read from the female perspective, when a 50-something woman conquers her inhibitions – not only about nudity, but about her body in general.

Dress code: When less is more

Despite leading out with the use of the antiquated term, “nudist colony,” I’m always appreciative when a mainstream blogger writes thoughtfully about naturism. In this case, she quotes a naturist friend who observes that nudity is “just another dress code.” A great piece to offset all the hype out there that leads the masses to […]

Hey! What about Naturism in America?!?

REBLOG: HEY! WHAT ABOUT NATURISM IN AMERICA?!? One of my very first blog posts where I attempted to explain our affinity for naturism in Europe. A lot of water under the bridge (and a lot of naturist travel) since 2012, but I’m hoping it still seems relevant. Truthfully, I feel a bit less than […]
