Den and I became nudists almost by accident! In 2009 I lost my rental (it was sold) and decided to move into a campervan I had recently purchased (second - hand) I moved into the Donnybrook caravan park, and while Denz was visiting me one afternoon, we drove past Pacific Sun Friends. We turned to each other and said "Shall we give it a go" The rest is, as they say, History!

A start to ideas centred around the Naturist lifestyle

- Ride in a World Naked Bike Ride

- write a short story based on a naturist community

- spend a week at a naturist retreat

- write an article on positive self image based on Naturist values

- write an article on how Christian and naturist values are alligned eg. respect for self, others and the enviroment

- organise a nude bushwalk in one of the local nature reserves, as a fundraiser for a charity, and to raise awareness to Naturist lifestyle

More to come

Back in November 2011 I went on a 5 hour nude bushwalk in the Blue Mountains National Park, it was in a remote area of the park where I knew I would be unlikely to encounter any other people, so I could enjoy nature in the nude without offending anyone.

I would like to think that I am showing the world how to it is possible to be naked in a non sexual manner.

I walked down the almost trackless cliffs into the valley which only took about 25mins, but to come back out took almost 1 hour to crawl/scramble back up the cliff's.

EDIT: August 14th 2012 - I relaunched this article on various Facebook groups & immediately drew criticism from a couple of proponents of clubs & organised nudism, their argument's centred around being a member of a club as it is the only way to practice safe nudism & to forget about saving nude beaches because they are a lost cause... this is exactly the sort of attitude this article is targeting

The annual nude beach carnival at Samurai Beach at Anna Bay near Nelson Bay in NSW Australia is being held on Saturday the 4th of February 2012, this event is organised by CAVN (Coast And Valley Naturists)

Last years event attracted over 300 nude participants from all ages, they had egg & spoon/sack races (I came 2nd) hole in the bucket races & a nude body painting competition.

Not specifically a naturist B. & B., but clearly, staying with Bob Reed means that you could not be better informed regarding the naturist lifestyle in NSW, Australia, the World!!

A billboard for bodycare brand Ecoya, which features a naked woman straddling a horse, has been blocked from running on outdoor sites in Australia.

The Outdoor Media Association deemed that the ad – which was permitted to run in New Zealand – breached its code of ethics and did not treat sex and nudity with due sensitivity, and would be seen by children as well as its target audience of adult women.

The image is running on Ecoya’s website, with a number of others of naked women with animals. Ecoya’s New Zealand-based chairman Geoff Ross said he had also tried to run an image of a woman posing with an owl on Australian billboards. But that was also refused by the OMA.

On Puur op reis we posted a newsitem about San Francsico nudity. If there is an update on the subject, please let uw know.
