Some time ago, we received a message from one of our readers asking how she should position her legs in a nudist venue or at a nude beach. More specifically, what the maximum acceptable distance between her two knees would be. Within the same week, we stumbled upon an entry on a naturist forum of a woman saying something like “according to the nudist etiquette, I never bend over and always go through the knees“. … Read more
For many European naturists, including ourselves, a visit to the spa was the first experience of social nudity. This isn’t a coincidence. The step to try a nude spa is just a lot smaller than a visit to a naturist club or resort. While the latter encourage nudity, bathrobes and sarongs are embraced at the spa. Nudity is only obligatory inside the pool, the jacuzzi, and the other facilities. If you prefer some covering when … Read more
When we started with Naked Wanderings, we felt that there was a gap in the information about naturism that could be found online. There were static websites, often in need of an urgent makeover. You could subscribe to newsletters from clubs or federations. And there were not much more than a handful of naturist bloggers, whom we happily joined. After more than 4 years of blogging on Naked Wanderings, we’ve seen many other naturist … Read more
There was a time when we thought that COVID was so 2020. That with the beginning of the new year, the virus would magically disappear. Or at least that we would gain control over it, lock it in a little box and hide it in a dark dungeon. That the next time we’d hear about the virus would be in a couple of years in an Oliver Stone movie. But that didn’t happen. For … Read more
One of our very first blog posts, which we wrote almost 5 years ago, was called “The Misconceptions of Naturism“. It quickly became a cornerstone article and set the path for what Naked Wanderings would become. We would answer the questions that people often have about naturism. We would inspire others to give it a try and remove the taboo by tackling the misconceptions. Today, we believe that we can say that we have … Read more
What’s the deal with naturism around the world today? Is it growing or shrinking? Are naturists getting older or younger? Is gender imbalance still such an issue? During our naturist travels to different countries and continents, we’ve learned that evaluating the evolution of naturism or nudism on a global level is pretty impossible. We noticed, for example, that in regions where a naturist culture is still quite new, like in Asia and South America, … Read more
Exactly one year ago, we published a blog post called Goodbye to the Lost Year, welcome 2021! It was our typical new year’s blog post, just like the one you just started reading now. We had no idea yet that the next 5 months we would be staying within not more than a 30-kilometer radius. We had no idea yet that traveling would prove to be as hard as in 2020. But neither did we … Read more
We are often asked about our favorite naturist destinations. Which place do we like the most for our nude vacations? It’s a question to which we honestly can’t give a solid answer. All places are so different and provide such a diversity in naturist experiences. Often we prefer to bend the question a little bit and talk about the country which definitely has the most options for naturists: France. We had explored some of … Read more
This was the first time in our lives that we were going to visit a resort that promotes sensual nudity rather than non-sexual nudity. On purpose. For a long time, we had considered these adults-only all-inclusive lifestyle hotels completely out of our scope, but since we’ve met more and more genuine nudists who told us that they actually had a great holiday at places like the Desire resorts in Mexico, we felt that we did … Read more
Finding a new nudist resort has for a long time been a pain in our naked behinds. We have to admit that we don’t just settle for the first option that comes in sight though. It must have a good atmosphere, a pool for our daily skinny dip, maybe a cool nude beach, and so on. You probably know what we’re talking about. This is OUR nude vacation and we want our nude resort to … Read more
