Cypress Cove in Florida, one of the USA’s most popular nudist resorts, recently appeared in a new Netflix series called Worn Stories. Something we very much applauded, even before having seen the episode. Every time that naturism appears in mainstream media, it’s a step forward to normalizing nudity. It’s yet another time that our voices are heard and that people get to see what naturists do and what they look like. But naturism in … Read more
How many people have seen you naked already? Maybe a handful of previous partners? Maybe some close friends or family members? Maybe nobody at all? In our case, that would be many thousands. Maybe hundreds of thousands. We didn’t really keep track. Does that idea sound daunting to you? It definitely did to us, the first time we were about to enter a place where “naked” was the official dress code. From the number … Read more
The other day, we took part in an interesting Twitter conversation (if we had a dollar for every time that happens) about whether or not naturism should become more commercial and whether there is a need for naturist business models. Will it improve naturism as we know it? Or will it backfire and take down the whole non-profit concept on which naturism was initially built? Will fully embracing capitalism be the next step towards normalizing … Read more
Our friend and colleague blogger, The Meandering Naturist, decided some months ago to take a break from blogging. A pity, if you ask us, as this blog has numerous times been an inspiration for our own blog posts. Luckily, Dan’s writings don’t come with an expiration date and continue to influence our own thoughts and ideas. Like the other day, when we stumbled upon this short article about the 5 funniest names of nudist … Read more
By traveling the world permanently for the last years we have learned a lot. And we have made many mistakes. Mistakes in the form of way too expensive hotel rooms, flights, and taxi fares and mistakes that have cost us a lot of time. With this page, we want to help you avoid making the same mistakes as we did. We are going to help you save a lot of time searching the internet for … 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
Simply Naked: Episode 2 February 5th, 2021 About Simply Naked is a worldwide collective of promotors of naturism who will share their passion for naturism, their thoughts about the many different aspects of naturism, and their visions for the future of naturism. In some kind of talk show format, we discuss the different aspects of naturism and nudism through our own eyes. We talk about our experiences and discuss the differences in the different parts … Read more
More than often when we visit a nudist resort we are asked for our opinion about how they can attract more young people, or at least more people our age. We always try to give them some tips, but unfortunately we don’t carry all the wisdom either. If that would be the case, we would start our own perfect resort and become millionaires. But clearly we haven’t gotten to that pointβ¦ yet. One thing we’ve … Read more
Remember the times when the magazines and websites of naturist federations were the only available source of information about naturism? On one hand it did make things pretty easy. Whatever they said, was the one and only truth. Their definitions, rules, and etiquette defined naturism. Period. Of course, not every naturist had the same opinion, but there wasn’t really a platform available to share other visions about naturism. This was one of the main … Read more
This is probably the number one question that we are being asked (with “How do you make money?” as a close second, but that’s for another blog post). Some propose their own opinions. Are we prudes? Are we not really naturists? Are we posers who are just looking for quick fame on the internet? Are we keeping the juicy stuff to put behind a paywall? Truth to be said, as Naked Wanderings evolved over … Read more
