If there’s one thing we learned from diving very deep into the naked world for almost 7 years in a row now, it’s that there’s there’s no one-size-fits-all. Or, as we like to say, there are as many naturisms or nudisms as there are naturists or nudists. The other day, we received a message from a couple who had their first clothes-free experience in Resort X and very much disliked it. It came as … Read more
In last week’s blog post, we talked about a lot of new online tools that are helpful for booking and organising vacations, and about how they are often limiting to us, who like to go to places where clothes are not part of the dress code. We received a lot of responses to this post, confirming how it can be hard to find naturist, nudist, or clothing-optional destinations. Especially for first-timers, finding your way … Read more
Before we started our Naked Wanderings journey, we once took a gap year to go backpacking around Latin America. Thinking back of it now, the way we used to travel couldn’t have been more different than it is today. And not just because we wore clothes at the time. Back in the day, we didn’t have apps or international sim cards. When we arrived at a new destination, we had to figure out how … Read more
We took our first steps into social nudity at a wellness centre. For those of you who are not from Belgium, Germany, or The Netherlands, wellness centres are like water parks for grown-ups. They offer a variety of swimming pools, saunas, hammams, hot tubs, cold tubs, massages, and other things that are meant to give you total relaxation. Nudity is the dress code at these places, for reasons that we’ll get to in a moment. … Read more
Around 10 am, the first guests start arriving. Some still looking sleepy, recovering from yesterday’s night out, others already enjoying their first beer of the day. Most are roughly between the ages of 25 and 50. An Uber arrives to drop off the DJ. Several days earlier, she was still spinning records in Ibiza, but she seemed to have recovered surprisingly well from the jetlag. Or she just got very good at hiding it. … Read more
Some blog posts almost write themselves. As soon as one or two words appear on the screen, full sentences seem to come out of nowhere and before we know it, we’ve shared yet another idea, vision, or experience with you. This is not such a blog post. Several times during the last week we sat down and tried to get this going, but the sentences did not come. A pity, because it would have avoided … Read more
Given our experience in travelling to naked places, we’re often being asked for “Best of” lists. What’s our favourite country? What’s our favourite resort? What’s our favourite nude beach? What’s our favourite brand of G-string to wear on the nude beach? Okay, that last question was just one dude. The thing is, it’s so very hard to give you an accurate answer because we don’t know anything about G-strings. And the other questions are even … Read more
Remi & Sandra Remi and Sandra are a Dutch couple who decided to follow their dreams instead of the rat race. Dreams that would take them to Italy, to open up a brand new naturist campground in the picturesque hills of Tuscany. Food, wine, nature, history, and nudity… We can’t wait until they open their doors! We are Remi & Sandra, an energized couple on a quest to fulfill our dream of starting a … Read more
Once upon a time, The United States was known as “The land of freedom”. The place where everything was possible. A refuge for 19th-century Europeans who felt suffocated or persecuted in their home countries and dreamt of a better life. Everything, even the complete impossible, was possible in America. Today, especially in naturist circles, Europeans like to joke about the USA. Land of freedom… yeah right. Land where you’re likely to get fired or … Read more
We visited several clothing-optional resorts lately and were kinda surprised of how many questions we received about this concept. Especially on our Instagram Stories, because that’s where you can follow our travels live (in case you didn’t know this yet). Most people know naturism and/or nudism as these terms have existed for over a century. Clothing-Optional is rather new, from what we read, it only started being used in the eighties or nineties. … Read more
