We still remember that feeling, though it grows fainter with each passing year. Yet, every now and then, we like to revisit it. There you are, having just read or heard or seen something about social nudity and suddenly, there’s a spark. Curiosity takes hold, and you find yourself wanting to know more. But where do you even begin? Millions have been in this situation before and there are thousands of places to choose … Read more
We often hear that some people find naturism rather expensive. Well, it’s not. Taking off your clothes doesn’t cost you a thing, unless you do so in inappropriate places which may result in a ticket from the police. In fact, going naked is cheaper than going clothed, because you obviously can avoid the cost of clothes. Social nudity is another story, around the world are plenty of public places where you can be naked, … Read more
A question we regularly get about naturism is “What do you do when it’s cold?” We always find this funny because the simplicity of our answer often leaves people speechless. “We just put on some clothes”. There are people who passionately follow the mantra “as nude as possible, as much as possible”, but most naturists we meet actually don’t mind clothes that much. This includes ourselves, by the way. We believe that there’s a … Read more
The summer season is coming to an end in Europe. Unless you’re living in Spain or Greece, you’re likely to see clothes-free resorts in your area close their doors or start gathering wood for the stove and heating up the pool. For us, the end of the season is always a good time to look back at what we’ve seen and try to imagine what the perfect nude vacation for next year will look … Read more
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
In the not-so-distant past, naturism was primarily limited to certain regions of Europe and North America. While clubs and associations attempted to offer year-round activities, being naked in natural surroundings was often reserved for the most adventurous during specific seasons. However, the landscape has significantly transformed over the past few decades. Today, an increasing number of countries are embracing naturism and establishing dedicated facilities for naturist vacations. This remarkable shift means that there is … Read more
After pretty much a decade and a half of being naturists, we sometimes seem to find it difficult to understand what it’s like to be a newbie naturist. To us, it feels so natural. It’s something we don’t even think about anymore. In fact, we often need to remind ourselves to put on clothes when we happen to stay at a non-naturist place. To regain our understanding of newbie naturists, we used ChatGPT to … Read more
We remember a time when, if we wanted information about something, we had to jump on our bicycles and ride to the library. Where we had to scan through the books, looking for one that may answer our questions. We had to make sure to pick the right books because the limit was 4 at a time. And we also had to reserve time for reading, because after 3 weeks the books needed to be … Read more
