I've had a long-time interest in nudism/naturism with only the occasional opportunity to practice it, but in June 2018 I and my partner (Diane) went to a Clothes Optional Day at Abbey House Gardens, UK and absolutely loved it. Should have sought out more opportunities years ago! Love being naked (waxed and smooth) at home and in the garden (when hot enough!), getting involved in nudist activities and meeting up socially with other nudists/naturists. I also like to join in with nudist walks/hikes and love the freedom of walking naked around the countryside. We attend naked dining events, naked theatre, clothes optional and naturist visits to gardens and visiting naturist beaches. We also enjoy hot tubs, nudist photography and meeting up with other nudist friends and couples. We have great fun taking and modelling for our own nude photography. I also write occasional blogs and articles on nudism/naturism and volunteer with a UK-based naturist organisation. Get naked, stay naked, live naked and share your nakedness! Help make nakedness normal. Follow me on Instagram @naturistjohn Follow me on MeWe @mewe.com/i/johngelder

Anyone who enjoys social nudity or naked walking. Also interested in meeting up with bi-curious/bi-sexual men or couples (especially if you are waxed, shaved and smooth!) and would like to explore issues around sexuality, social nudity and/or nudism.

I have a long-term interest in nudity and sexuality, including how this has been portrayed over time. This has led me to explore my own bi-sexuality. I and my partner are both nudists/naturists; and in an Ethical Non Monogamous relationship. She is very accepting, understanding and encouraging of my sexuality, both in terms of a lifelong interest and my feelings and desires to live out bi-sexual experiences. When not naked I love to wear clothes that give me that 'second skin' feeling, such as latex, neoprene or Lycra. Love wearing leggings when out and about, along with boots, especially my Doc Martin knee length boots. I am also interested in family history, musical theatre and the history of naturism .
