Our Designer of Dreams, Jacob, recently came across this article by Gen Z nudist Alex, on the excellent blog Planet Nude. The piece got us thinking hard about the future of the nudist community. If younger generations are the future, don’t nudist practices rest significantly in the hands of Generation Z? In theory, they will influence the evolution of naturism. Read this interesting piece to understand how Alex sees it.
Great news, we’ve been selected as one of the top 35 Naturist Blogs by Feedspot for the second year running! While naturism and clothing-optional activities continue to grow in popularity, finding ways to connect with the community can present quite a challenge depending on where you live. We have found that blogs continue to provide the best travel advice and resources for our clothing-optional explorations. Here is a snapshot of a few blogs that were selected alongside this one.
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.
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.
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…
We just ran a trip in Paradise. It was, in fact, our first Naked Villa trip – we call it “The Naked Paradise Villa”. It was fabulous: exciting, sensual, full of variety, fun – and nude. At the end of the week-long experience, we asked our travelers, “What were some of your personal highlights?” Here’s what some of the guys told us…
– Taking part in a purification ritual under the waterfall –
– Rafting down the jungle river –
– Going up the mountain in a 4-wheel drive open vehicle, for the sunrise over the crater lake –
– Experiencing the multi-course tasting menu, at the underwater restaurant –
– The craft classes – making silver jewelry, and carving dicks from wood –
We always respect photo preferences, so you won’t see all the guys from it here. And also, some things that happened just can’t be shown on this blog. Still, we think you’ll get an idea of some of the fun we had. Enjoy this pictorial spread of The Naked Paradise Villa.
What’s your insecurity? More than likely, a body part comes to mind. Hairline. Nose. Skin blemishes. Balls. It’s hard not to succumb to the negative emotions around our insecurities, and let them stop us from living life fully. Some people practice nudism in rebellion against the arbitrary societal assignment of “good” versus “bad” appearance. Screw all the bullshit of a good versus a bad stomach – a body is a body is a body. And all men’s bodies are welcome on Everything To Sea trips. We love the way this article from AlmostWild.com goes further into this topic.
In a healthy nudist community, practicing non-judgement is essential, accepting people as they are is precious, and staying curious is where the magic happens. In this blog post, we’re sharing an excerpt from AlmostWild.blog. It’s a beautiful reminder of how the practice of nudism is nuanced, and how it can mean different things to different people based on their personal interests and experiences. Aboard our trips, we meet a variety of men from all walks of life. We’ve learned that holding an open, supportive space for deep conversation often yields the most amazing and memorable voyages.
We round up five modern-day homosexually-charged flicks that proudly and unabashedly show off… the goods.
Get Your Dream Relationship by Setting Boundaries
If you’ve gone through our website, you know that our most unique offering (in fact, we’re the only company in the world that offers this!) is Your Private Journey. So hopefully, you’ve heard about Your Private Journey. Now, what about Your Dream Relationship? In this post, we discuss something we can’t set up for you: this one, you’ve got to do yourself. Read on, for tips on how to get Your Dream Relationship.
The fact is, boundaries are essential in healthy partnerships. And we each have our own set of boundaries – whether we’re fully conscious of them or not. For example, “I need you to be on time for our date night,” or, “I don’t want to be touched there.” When boundaries are crossed in relationships, it’s normal to feel frustrated, disappointed, or sad. For many, it’s a great challenge to actually state boundaries out loud due to fear of judgement, abandonment, or rejection. But people aren’t mind readers, and that’s why rules and boundaries must be made explicit – and the sooner, the better. In this article, we’re going to dive into how to set boundaries, especially when it comes to open relationships.
A look at the curious ways the English language deals with nudity.
We are big language nerds over here at Everything To Sea. We love sharing and comparing the nuances and idiosyncrasies that exist in English versus other languages. In fact, altogether our team can speak 8 different languages, including German, French, Indonesian, Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, Javanese, and English. We couldn’t resist sharing excerpts from a blog written by Paul Rousse, editor of Naturist Travel/H&E Naturist. He takes a deep dive into the various ways that people have used the English language to describe nudity, from the coarse and comical to the polished and old-fashioned.
A boner war may be raging in nudist camps, but with Everything To Sea trips, the only thing raging might be boners themselves. Woops – now we’re just being “cheeky.” Not that there’s anything wrong with ass cheeks (or assholes; we like them on our trips, too! We mean, the body part… not some dick you just met.) Wait, did you just meet up with… some dick?
In this blog post, Everything To Sea’s Eddie Rahadian talked with Patrick Emmanuel, the founder of MaleBodyPoetry.net, in which he waxes on both male nudity and the beauty of nature. Check out our Q&A with the Heidelberg-based guy below.
Now that we’re emerging from a long quarantine, many people are realizing they may have put on a few “pandemic pounds.” Well, if you find yourself in that category, we’re here to help. We heard of a new way to exercise…with your balls. Yes, it’s called “Ball Yoga”. We went to our friends The Naked Trainers to find out what it’s all about, and how you can get to stretching the family jewels.
Some men may find it a rare treat to be able to get naked with others. Vacations are usually when people drop their drawers to swim or visit a naturist resort. However, why does it have to be a rare occasion? We found this article, “Living Naked Daily” on nudeandhappy.com, which shares ways to get naked more often.
“I don’t have a good enough body or a big enough dick to be naked in front of others.” Have you ever said this before? Even if you haven’t said it out loud, perhaps you’ve thought it to yourself. We interviewed a guy who’s posted on our Twitter X page. Below, he talks about his own body image...
