LionInTheSun

Hi there, My partner of 20 years and I were tired of the nearly endless, frigid winters of NYC and moved to Charleston, SC a few years ago; "Nice place to visit..." as they say. We relocated to sunny Miami a few years ago. I started skinny-dipping as a teenager and really enjoyed the experience. Went to the nude beach in Provincetown when I was 18 and have been going to nude beaches, resorts and swimming holes around the world regularly since then. You just can't beat basking in the sun surrounded by nature. I am beyond delighted to have the amazing Haulover Beach just 20 minutes from home and have been making good use of my beach chair and suntan lotion! Open to meeting friends to hang out at the beach with.

Looking for friends to hang out at the beach with or to introduce me to any other naturist places there may be in south Florida.

I work with fine art, am creative, a craftsman, have a wry sense of humor and am usually involved in progressive politics. Avid reader who enjoys digging through vintage clothing shops, flea markets and antiquing. I've been a vegetarian for over 25 years and practice yoga regularly. I don't smoke or touch drugs. Might have a sip of wine maybe once a month when I go out to dinner. Rode a vintage scooter for years but FL drivers are insane so gave it up. I ride my bike around town nearly every day. Gardening is a favorite hobby and I was a member of community a garden in Bklyn for years. Been trying to join a community garden in Miami but there's a waiting list of 2-3 years... bummer. Getting my passport stamped in some new country to explore is pure bliss to me.

When I'm not listening to NPR, there's usually some American song book standards playing - few can compare to the amazingly talented Nina Simone or Billie Holiday. Other times I listen to Lo-Fi and Lounge Music - Pink Martini, Thievery Corp, Les Negresses Verdes... Grace Jones holds a special place in my heart and classic disco or vintage new wave get me on the dance floor.

Prefer thoughtful independent and foreign films and the classics as opposed to action-packed blockbusters that have no substance... But also a Sci-Fi nerd.

Eleanor Roosevelt, Josephine Baker, Elizabeth Warren, Jimmy Carter, Jane Jacobs, Bernie Sanders, Paul Wellstone, Amy Goodman to name a few.
