Improve your body acceptance by going nude

You’re probably thinking “they must be joking” right? All your life you’ve been spending thousands of hours and dollars picking clothes that make you look thinner, hats that make you look larger, make-up to hide the wrinkles and jewellery to distract the attention from all the rest. Who knows, maybe you’ve even been to a doctor to have this or that corrected. And now Nick and Lins are telling you to leave all that behind… … Read more

What’s with the whole nudism and sex thing?

It’s one of the most common misconceptions about naturism… We’re all perverts, loving to expose our “oh so holy” body parts to one another, having sex with everyone around, male, female it all doesn’t matter for us, threesomes, foursomes, fivesomes, huge orgies.   And the response of the naturist community is strict: “Nudity and sex are two totally different things!”   Of course we support the naturist community, but somehow we get the feeling that … Read more

The nudist dress code

Sounds strange doesn’t it? Now that you’ve been feeling free as a bird on the nudie beach, Nick and Lins suddenly start talking about dress codes… What’s that all about?   Nick hates dress codes, whenever we’re invited to a party or event that requires a dress code he’ll try to avoid going. There’s only one exception: the birthday suit. Did you notice the word “suit”? Well, many first time nudists have a lot of … Read more

That time we ended up on a Brazilian swingers party

Some time ago we’ve written a post about awkward situations that could happen to nudists, more specifically awkward situations that have happened to us while we were in the buff. But the best one (at least according to us) we haven’t told you yet, because it’s word a whole post.   Like every good story it starts with once there was a couple tourists in Brazil. That couple was Nick and Lins. Now in Brazil … Read more

How to tell your significant other?

We can consider ourselves lucky about this as we’ve discovered nudism together and we both enjoyed it equally. (if you want to know how, see here and here) But what if you’re already a nudist and your significant other isn’t? Or you’ve been wanting to give it a shot but you don’t know how to tell him/her?   The key to failure You know the saying “Throwing a kid into the water is the best way … Read more

Something about cultural differences

For this post we would really appreciate your input because we only have experience with naturist sites in Western Europe and Brazil. We’ve been doing some research on the internet but except for some formal websites it’s difficult to determine how people at the other end of the world look at naturism.   So from wherever you are, please let us know how/if naturism is appreciated in your environment. Is it legal? Is it something … Read more

7 Reasons why you want to be a nudie

“Why the hell do you want to spend your free time being naked in front of others?” It’s a question we get rather often. What drives us to be nude in public? What do we love so much about nudist resorts, nude beaches, naturist campings and all those other places where we spend time in the nude? What’s so fun about swimming naked? And why does it have to be social? Do we enjoy seeing … Read more

Awkward situations at the nudist resort

Yes, sometimes nudism can be a little awkward

We sometimes receive the question if we never find it awkward, the whole nudism thing. Because hey, you’re naked, the other people are naked, that must make for some embarrassing moments. We understand the way of thinking because it comes from a person who has never been socially nude before. For them every nude moment outside of the bedroom or bathroom which includes other persons must be something unexpected. Something embarrassing. And our answer to … Read more

How to handle the taboo around naturism?

I’m sorry but we couldn’t find a conclusive answer to this question. Maybe you do? Anyway, what we can give you is a kind of an analysis of the situation and we’ll see where we get from there…   As a human, we don’t like to be judged. And why do you get judged? Because you’re doing something that’s not mainstream. And people love to judge… So if you’re doing something uncommon, you don’t talk … Read more

The Misconceptions of Naturism

In our previous post So what about nudism, we have given you an introduction about naturism and its variations. By looking at the history of nudism we hope that we’ve been able to show you how it grew from a need to connect with nature and as a reaction to conformism.   Even though naturism as we know it exists for more than a century and is, especially in Europe, widely accepted, there are still some … Read more
