People often ask what our favourite places in the world are. It’s one of the toughest questions to answer because experiences are always very personal. It’s not because we love a place that you will love it too and sometimes our opinions are based on just a stay of a couple of days. But if you’ve been following our travels, you may have noticed that now and then we seem to appear in Zipolite. … Read more
We LOVE Mexico. We love everything about it, from tacos to tequila and from mariachi music to the friendly smiles on the faces of the Mexicans. And we love the weather. There’s something mischievously delightful about scrolling through Facebook and seeing our European friends sharing photos of endless rain while we are getting ready for the beach. The downside is that we left our beloved Zipolite behind and are now in a place where … Read more
There are a lot of assumptions about who actually visits clothes-free resorts. Some think that those places are full of models, showcasing their bodies as if they are in a nude photoshoot. Others think the opposite, that it’s all about people who don’t care about their bodies. And then there is also the stereotype of the elderly naked white man with a beer belly. When people ask us who naturists or nudists really are, … Read more
Unlike what some seem to believe, paid naturist content is not something new. For many decades, naturist federations and clubs have been publishing magazines and newsletters that were uniquely for their members. Unless you paid the membership fee, or you had generous friends, you didn’t have access to this content. For the longest time, these organisations had quite a monopoly on such publications. If you wanted to know what was happening in the naturist … 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
Some European countries, like France and Croatia, are known for their large naturist resorts. There you can spend days in the nude without ever feeling the need to head into the clothed world. We never considered that the Netherlands could also have a spot like this. We always considered the Netherlands a country where naturists travel from, not travel to. Well, until we visited Flevo Natuur. It has to be said that Flevo Natuur … 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 concept of naturist clubs is something we have ignored for the longest time. We’ve always considered ourselves more the recreational kind of naturists. Back in the days before Naked Wanderings, we would most often decide to go to a nude place in the morning. We would see the sunshine through the curtains and realise that our agendas were pretty blank that day. So we would pack for a day at the beach or, if … Read more
Honestly, we had no idea what to expect. For years, people from all around the UK had been sending us messages asking when we would finally cross the channel. We always found a reason not to. The high cost of living, the unpredictable weather, and the pandemic kept pushing us to places like Spain and France. Countries that we know and where we’re certain that we can make good content. The purchase of Scarlet, … Read more
Throughout the years, we’ve had the chance to participate in quite some naked events. There have been small gatherings that included a guitar and campfire, or sports tournaments, naked runs, family meetups, concerts, you name it. Some were better organised than others, but in most cases, we would walk away with at least a few good memories. We never imagined though that one of the most entertaining events we’ve ever been to would be … Read more
