Street cred

This isn’t our first big rodeo.
Before deciding to start our own blog, we had some fairly good results acting as an “unpaid reporter” for another nudist blog earlier this year, when we filed a series of reports from the 10-day nude cruise on the Holland America Maasdam. Those reports are ours, along with all the photos filed with them, and the series of posts got a lot of visibility on the nudist Internet at the time — in fact, Bare Necessities still has a link to those posts on their main Web page.
After seeing the kind of readership those postings got on someone else’s blog, it got us to thinking about the apparent vacuum in blogs written by and about real nudists, doing the kinds of things real nudists do. That led to finally deciding to start up this blog, since we think we have plenty of nudist experiences to share, and lots more to come in the future.
Indeed, we plan to spend the better part of the rest of our lives nude, living at a nudist resort when we retire next year and traveling part of the year to visit nudist resorts around the country, attend the AANR conventions, and so on. In effect, the rest of our lives will be spent as nude as we can, in as many places as we can, and doing as many new things as we can within the nudist lifestyle.
Besides, we like to write, and we like to spread the fun and relaxation of social nudism to as many nice folks as we can. Maybe this little blog, just one among many millions, can help with that — and let us share our love of this wonderful lifestyle with friends we haven’t even met yet!
Yes, that was on the blog I created.
They were great reports. I think your reports were very valuable to those looking to learn what nudist cruises are really like. What Bare Necessities has achieved for both nudism and as a nudist-oriented business is impressive if not historic in proportions.
I wish you the best of luck on your new website. The more real nudists write about and promote nudism, the more we can hope that it will displace websites that pose as nudist, but who are really adult-oriented.
