As the old saying goes, “A rising tide lifts all boats.” Well, that’s a wrap on our brief dive into the world of penile erections, courtesy of Medical News Today. Who knew that cornflakes were once touted as a masturbation deterrent, or that the penis could actually break? We certainly didn’t! But hold on, there’s more to discover about the schlong in this article. Keep reading, and you’ll look at your breakfast — and your pecker — a little differently.
Fuck ups happen in life, and travel is no exception. We found this article on Daily Passport about common mistakes travelers make during flight delays and cancellations. We want your travels to be as carefree as our naked voyages! So, before you take flight on your next adventure, take a moment to arm yourself with this knowledge. Happy reading, and remember — in travel, as in life, it’s all about going with the flow!
At Everything To Sea, we’re always excited to explore innovative ways to protect our oceans and marine life. We found an article on nicenews.com which is about sustainable fish leather (edited for brevity, below). It’s made from the invasive lionfish species, and aligns with our commitment to environmental conservation and responsible travel.
As a company that values the beauty of our seas, we understand the importance of preserving coral reefs and maintaining the delicate balance of marine ecosystems. Now, we know you’re probably thinking, “But wait, aren’t you guys all about naked sailing trips?” And you’re right! But we also care a ton about what’s happening to our oceans beyond our boat decks. This clever idea of transforming an invasive fish species into an eco-friendly product is brilliant!
Come on our sea trips in The Coral Triangle – there’s a good chance to see lionfish close up, while snorkeling with us.
GQ columnist Chris Black finds himself on a plane without Wi-Fi and begins to reconsider his long-term relationship with the internet. How extremely online do we really need to be? Many believe that what we do on the internet ties to our identity, and how productive we are. Black’s experience without the internet made us think: Do we need to balance our online and offline lives better? Are we relying too much on being connected all the time? Is this constant need to be online taking away from other important parts of our lives?
We love Thai food! We especially love its bold flavors. This sentiment was also echoed by the late chef, author and intrepid traveler Anthony Bourdain. When tasting Thai cooking for the first time, he remarked: “It was like discovering a colour I never knew existed before. A whole new crayon box full of colours.”
We adapted and abridged two articles by TheWingedFork.com that answer what Thai food is all about. Our hope is that it awakens your senses to the colorful world of Thai flavors…
It’s weird… in a world supposedly to be more connected, in the cycle of wake-work-sleep, finding a supportive and understanding community — especially a naked community that society often sidelines — can be challenging. This article, adapted from Aleteia.org, explores the benefits of forming male friendships and provides tips on how to cultivate and maintain these connections.
And on that note, we’ve recently launched our own Telegram and Facebook communities for naked travelers to engage with like-minded men on a more personal level (there’s even a section where you can share naked pics).
Feeling tugged by social media, emails, and the vibrations of digital devices? These days, it can be challenging to live “in the moment.” It’s ironic that we’re talking about digital detox on the internet, but that’s just how it is nowadays: even digital detoxing has to begin digitally. When left unchecked, tech fatigue can insidiously affect our health. It’s even more important to go off the grid when we’re on vacation. Check out this article by TripConcierge.co about combining digital detox with your holidays. “In an age of speed, I began to think, nothing could be more invigorating than going slow,” travel writer Pico Iyer writes in his book The Art of Stillness.
This blog post explores different aspects of growing up male, erotic orientation, and what it means to have a healthy sexuality. It’s not always easy for guys to find their way through gender and sexual realms. Check out this article found on kimberlykeiser.com, which explores these themes.
The Coral Triangle is, without question, the greatest center of biodiversity in the marine world. Even though it holds just 1.5% of the total ocean area across the globe, it houses:
76% of coral species on the planet
Nearly 50% of known marine life
Six of the world’s seven marine turtle species
The Coral Triangle is considered one of the three mega-ecological complexes on our planet, together with the Congo Basin and the Amazon Rainforest.
We stumbled on this listicle on Reef-World.org, that describes how the Coral Triangle is, well, the superlative of superlatives. It’ll probably have you looking forward to June 9th – annually designated “Coral Triangle Day”, to raise awareness about marine conservation. And to accompany our reprint of the article, we’re sharing actual photos taken by our travelers on our Everything To Sea trips. Get ready for a truly special treat…
Do oysters make you horny? For some people, the answer is “yes.” We found that there’s a good reason for this: these molluscs are a rich source of zinc, which increases testosterone (as well as sperm count). Hey, if you’re not sure about your sperm count, we could try to, uh, count it for you. Perhaps we could keep track of this – in the name of science, of course! – at The Naked French Villa. As one of our Off-the-Beaten-Path activity options on that trip, we travel right to the source of this aphrodisiac, to eat what many believe to be “the best oysters in the world.”
We found a great read on these delicious morsels, at BarefootBlogger.com. Enjoy reading today… and tasting, in September!
Are you curious about nudism, but concerned that you’ll be judged negatively? Shame can be a powerful deterrent to nudism. At Everything To Sea, we believe that there’s a deeper purpose to shedding off clothes: Being naked is a way to practice self-acceptance. There comes a time when we have to question from where shame around nudity stems. Also, who or what perpetuates it… and why? Some of these answers are candidly expressed, in an article we found on British Naturism.
You don’t need an expensive camera to take photos of sunsets if you follow these tips for photography. And on Everything To Sea’s trips, there are plenty of opportunities to take beautiful photos of sunsets. What’s even better than sunsets? Sunsets with you as the subject. Think Venus breaking out of her shell!
We recently were buzzing around Quora.com killing some time, and found this lightbulb joke (we love lightbulb jokes!)
“Help! My Husband Enjoys Sailing Naked and Drinking Beers With Gay Men. What do you think this could mean?”
We found the above question in the advice column known as “Dear Prudence” in Slate Magazine. Check out the full query, below… and Prudence’s response, afterwards:
Have you ever wondered why guys avoid being naked in locker rooms? Is it about society’s rules? How we’re raised? Perhaps, a sign of the changing times? Check out this article we found on the subject – edited for brevity – by Kevin Frye on medium.com.
Hungry for some good musing about food and men? Check out this article from GQ.com. It suggests that men may define themselves by their tolerance for spice. The author wonders why this has become such a common trend in our gender. Does it make men look more travelled, cultured or classy? Or is it nothing more than a culinary dick-swinging contest?
Co-founder Dave interviews Bruce, a true renaissance man. A former policeman in New Zealand, he later began a career as a fisherman, and operates an emergency aid service, too. Bruce owns two fishing boats, loves jewelry (specifically, diamonds), and recently completed his second trip with Everything To Sea.
David and Auston from TwoBadTourists.com recently wrote about our newest offering, The Naked Thai Villa, on the island of Phuket. Sure, the blog reprint below is about us… but in the end, it could be about you. Check out the reading… and then consider checking out our actual trip…
For this blog post, we’d like to feature an article from The New York Times that explores how our naked bodies have changed over the past 50 years. It transports us back in time on an entertaining journey, complete with references to iconic events like Altamont Speedway and Woodstock. But it’s not just focusing on our body’s physical changes – our perceptions of nudity have also shifted. This article will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about nudity. We hope you find the evolution of our naked bodies as fascinating as we did!
