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
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 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
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
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
During the height of the COVID pandemic, nude vacations have seen significant growth. The reason was pretty obvious. People were looking for safe spaces to travel to, preferably somewhere in nature, where social distancing can easily be practiced, and where you can bring your own accommodation, food, and utensils. This is pretty much the definition of an everyday naturist campground. The fact that they would also have to leave the bathing suit at home was … Read more
Throughout our travels, we got the chance to talk with many people who enjoy some sort of social nudity. It could be just at home or in the garden with close family members, or at meetups with friends. Some go to nude events, nude yoga classes, or nude beaches. But we’re always surprised how only a small percentage of these people have ever been to a clothes-free resort. The number one reason why not, … Read more
