NUDISH.

My own journey into nudism started as a child growing up in India in the early 90s. Due to the  humid tropical climate, clothes got soaked with sweat and clanged to your body during the long  summer months. I found smelly, sweat-soaked clothes be an annoyance and preferred to take  them off whenever possible. I remember my mom telling me once about how she could not keep  clothes on me when I was a toddler. Within an hour of her dressing me, I would have taken them  all of off and put them to the side. My parents were not nudists and did not raise us in the lifestyle so to speak, but from what I  recall they were not overly modest either. When I first started school, my parents rented a small  one-bedroom apartment on the second floor of a building which only had one hallway bathroom.  Growing up in such tight quarters, it was often times a necessity for us to shower and change  around each other. Stripping down was oftentimes the first thing...

Let’s face it – diving into the world of nudism can feel kind of isolating at first, especially if you are unable to go to a nudist beach or resort. You may find yourself thinking “where are the other nudists around my own age?”. The good news? You’re not alone. Here is your beginner’s guide to finding bare buddies to share your love of nudism with.   1. 👀 Go Where the Nudies Are (Online Edition) Don’t sleep on online spaces — especially the ones built by and for younger nudists.

If you speak to most nudists, they’ll tell you that nudism isn’t sexual — and that’s true. But what many won’t openly say is that it’s perfectly normal to feel aroused from time to time. Think about it: you’re looking at a naked human body. Whether you’re gay, straight, bisexual, or anywhere in between, if you’re around someone you find attractive and they’re undressed, it’s natural for your body to react. Arousal is a hardwired human response — it doesn’t mean you’re being inappropriate, and it certainly doesn’t mean you’re doing nudism “wrong”. The key is how you handle it. For women and people without visible anatomy, it’s often easier to keep discreet. For men and those with penises, well... we’ve got a rather obvious flagpole that says, “Hey, I think you’re hot!” which can feel awkward or frustrating in a social nudist setting. The most important thing to remember is that getting an erection is a normal, involuntary response. If it happens, there’s no need to panic. Just take ...

So, you’re curious about nudism. Maybe you’ve heard about a nude beach, seen a naked yoga class on TikTok, or just like the idea of ditching your clothes and feeling free. Whatever brought you here—welcome. Let’s talk about what it’s like to try nudism (aka naturism) for the first time in the UK, and whether it’s something you might actually vibe with.   First of All, What Even Is Nudism? Nudism isn’t about flashing people or trying to be provocative. It’s about being naked in a non-sexual, respectful way—either alone, in nature, or around other people who are doing the same. For a lot of folks, it’s about freedom, confidence, and feeling more connected to yourself and the world.   And yes, there’s a whole UK naturist scene out there. From beaches to festivals to spa nights—you don’t have to fly to a tropical island to give it a go.   Where to Try It (Without Making It Weird) If you're feeling intrigued but lowkey nervous, that’s totally normal. Here are s...

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been intrigued by the idea of living more naturally and authentically. Like many, I grew up with the notion that nudity belonged in changing rooms or showers—something to be hidden, even shameful. But over the past few years, I’ve come to understand naturism as something quite different: freeing, grounding, and surprisingly ordinary. Discovering Naturism My journey into naturism began quietly, at home. After a long day, I’d kick off my shoes, peel away the layers, and simply enjoy the feeling of being bare. At first, it felt like a guilty pleasure—something I wouldn’t dream of mentioning to friends or family. But the more I allowed myself to relax in my own skin, the more natural it felt. I started cooking, reading, even working from home in the nude. It wasn’t about being provocative; it was about comfort, simplicity, and self-acceptance. That private exploration eventually led me to seek out a shared experience—somewhere I could be nude without ju...
