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
The other day we read an article about the most common diseases of the current times. It wasn’t particularly a positive boost of our day but for some reason, we were intrigued. Mostly because they weren’t what we had expected. We thought about ebola, malaria, or cholera, things you hear about in the news but rarely get very close to you. But no. Instead, the list contained heart disease, cancer, obesity, depression, anxiety, and … Read more
France is often said to be the mother of naturism. As early as 1931, the first naturist village in the world called Héliopolis was established on Levant Island. In the early 1950s, the International Naturist Federation came to existence in France and in the following decades, naturist resorts would pop up all around the country. Today, France has the largest number of private naturist places in the world and receives the largest number of naturist … Read more
We’ve told the story about our first steps into social nudity probably a gazillion times before. So here’s the short version once again: As a birthday present, Lins received two day passes for a Belgian wellness centre of choice. After doing a bit of research, we noticed that at all the really nice ones, bathing suits were not allowed. We would take the plunge, absolutely love it, start searching for more naked places and eventually … Read more
Just as we were thinking about a possible topic for this blog post, an email came in. After a short introduction about who she was, where she was from, and what tickled her interest in social nudity, came the question: “Where do I start?”. It seems so easy, and if she had asked us several years ago, we would have replied: “Try to find a naturist club or resort in your area, if these … Read more
If you’ve been following our YouTube channel, you might have seen that we made a significant change in our lives. After more than seven years of living out of a backpack, we now have a campervan with ample storage space. Wanting more than we need is probably very human and extra space appeared to be very easy to fill it up. That’s why, the next time we pass through Belgium, we plan to leave behind … Read more
It always surprises us when we’re talking to people on a nude beach, how few of them have ever visited a naturist resort or campground. For a variety of reasons. Sometimes it’s about misconceptions like a fear that you will be asked to be naked when you don’t really want to (which is almost never the case). Or it’s because they really love beaches. Quite some others just don’t feel much for a whole multi-day … Read more
In November 2020, we wrote a blog post about what naturist vacations could look like in 2021. It’s funny to re-read this because it was only the first year of the COVID pandemic and we seemed positive or ignorant enough to think that only a few months later we would wake up in an – although very much changed – free world. We were wrong about the two basics of that post really… 2021 … Read more
Why does one become a naturist? Some people will tell you that this question is irrelevant. You were born naked and in the first years of your life, clothes may have felt more of a burden than it does to the average adult naturist. Being naked is our natural state and being clothed is nothing but learned behaviour. Those are very valid statements, of course, which we can’t argue with. But later in your … Read more
For a long time, Croatia has been one of the world’s top destinations for nude vacations. The country was home to some of the largest naturist resorts ever seen and its endless coast was dotted with nude beaches. For a variety of reasons, Croatia has seen a decline in clothes-free tourism in recent decades, which resulted in several resorts where nude was once the norm going textile and nude beaches making space for mass tourism … Read more
