Nude in NY
We are in New York City for a few days, and so of course we will be nude nearly half the time. Our hotel is just steps from Times Square, and therefore we’ll probably bump into the Naked Cowboy as we usually do during every visit. But aside from the 14 or so hours a day we’re out of the hotel supposedly earning a living, we’ll chill out in the nude, in the hotel, while taking in an amazing view of 42nd Street.
With views like this, it’s our preference to leave all the lights off in the room and let the lights of the city add a soft glow to the hotel room. Some mellow music from Soma FM coming through iTunes, and simple nudity along with a glass of wine at the end of the day, make a long day of travel almost pleasureable. Leaving the drapes open and the lights in the room off provides us with both the freedom to be nude and not be visible to anyone who might be able to see into our 44th-floor window, but also to let the spectacular lights of the street below add a tender glow to the room.
It’s a wonder we made it through so many years of the business travel grind before discovering the relaxation and unburdening that a nude night’s stay in a hotel can be. A few hotels we’ve stayed at even provide little tea light candles in the room to help add to their guest’s decompression. Would that they also invite their guests to disrobe and relax in the most natural way possible!
Now it’s our habit to immediately undress upon reaching the hotel room after our journey or the day’s work. Unpacking, doing e-mail, phoning home — they can all wait until we’re nude and much more comfortable. And so like every night in a hotel for us, our week in New York City will be spent mostly nude — as we like it.
