OurNaturistLife@ournaturistlife.com · 7d agoI've been asked this question numerous times now. How can men support women in their clothes free journey? It’s is a more complicated question than it appears because my honest first answer was… most of them already do. ournaturistlife.com/2026/07/30/h...

Thanks Corin for your thoughtful writing on this.
OurNaturistLife@ournaturistlife.com · 2w agoNew from me (Corin): Part 1 on the parts of women's biology naturism doesn't talk about. Periods, puberty, birth control chaos. Including my own history, which I've never written publicly before. Not an easy one to hit publish on. ournaturistlife.com/2026/07/20/w...
A lovely article on naturism in NZ featuring Brent and Cathy in the July H&E magazine. You can buy the digital issue here pocketmags.com/us/he-naturi.... While you're there, also check out the May 2024 which has another lovely article on NZ.
Well, something to look forward to! Im not sure if the heightened sensory experience is the burnt bits 😅 ( not the bits in the pan!) But Im all for reducing the packaging whether it's me or the food!

Matariki When you reach for the stars, you are reaching for the farthest thing out there. When you reach deep into yourself, it is the same thing, but in the opposite direction. If you reach in both directions, you will have spanned the universe. Vera Nazarian, The Perpetual Calendar of Inspiration
Manawatia a Matariki! A time for reflection, remembering those we love and looking to the year ahead 🌟 🌠 💫

Busy living doesn't stop in the colder months, just like naturism doesn't stop when the weather turns 🌬❄️ What can you find us doing here in the heart of winter? #hbnaturistclub #hbwinter #stripthelayers #rechargeyourself #nature #peace #warmth #Wellbeing

GNI took the naked gay man—a concept that a puritanical society had sexualized, criminalized, and shamed—and placed him back into the hands of nature.

Happy birthday @hans.naturism.nz ! You're dedicated to naturism and truly walk the talk
Beautiful evening, and it was great to get that AGM done and dusted.
Hawkes Bay Naturist Club (Rapere)@hbnc.nz · 2mo agoAt our recent AGM, we had our midwinter dinner beforehand. This is the before photo as we set up not knowing how many people would show up on a cold winter evening! It turned out to be a 4 table night with a huge range of amazing ( elegant) food and even more interesting conversation 😀

We remember one of the titans of NZ naturism - Kay Hannam - who recently passed. She chaired the INF Conference in NZ, only the 2nd time it was held in the Southern Hemisphere. She authored the book "Nude With Attitude". She was editor of Gonatural magazine, and owner of Wai-natur naturist park.
