Letter of Recommendation: Naturism

While maybe leaning to a bit to the esoteric extreme, it is refreshing to see this recent commentary from the New York Times giving a somewhat muted endorsement for naturism. What is most pleasing, actually, is the author made it through the entire piece avoiding all the typical puns and stereotypish gags about social nudity, […]

Getting Naked in Germany at Vabali Spa Berlin

From travel blogger MOSTLY AMELIE, comes a comprehensive review of one of new spas in Berlin, a city somewhat famous for self-indulgent opportunities and social nudity. A friend just visited the sister spa in Düsseldorf returning with glowing reports, and we plan to spend a day at thos location in Berlin later this spring. The […]

I Socialize Naked

Just stumbled into this post from about five years ago while trying to formulate some similar thoughts of my own during this little ritual I like to call Naked Sunday Morning. Thought it particularly interesting to hear from a female perspective. I had to choose the Featured Image from another source, which is most definitely […]

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” […]

Nudist Couple Becomes Instagram Stars

Not the first time this has happened, but I find it interesting that it’s happening with increasing frequency, and that IG seems to be a bit more lenient, as long you your carefully avoid nipples and genitalia. Maybe a good sign. View original post: 1806 more words FOR MORE RATIONAL THOUGHTS ABOUT SOCIAL NUDITY, VISIT MY […]

My Parents Took Me to a Naked Place — The Meandering Naturist

I’m in France right now, as is my 20-something daughter, but she is not traveling with us at the moment. In fact, she took a beach trip today with several friends and acquaintances – all of whom I know – to just an ordinary beach on the Cote d’Azur. Not long into their stay, off […] […]

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 […]

The Scientific Reasons Why You Should Just Always Be Naked

Despite the author’s use of clichés about social nudity, especially the term “nudist colony,” the strength of this piece is found the links throughout that click through to several documents that actually add substance to the argument. Several excellent points, and several excellent sources. Worth the read. View original post: 865 more words For MORE rational […]

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. Not sure how this would play in the US, but it seems our British counterparts might be a bit more progressive in this arena. View original post: 1984 more words […]
