“A Polish woman who snaps nude self-portraits on her travels has taken the internet by storm. . . ‘It became about photographing myself alone all the time in different environments and cool landscapes . . . And then it became about showing the human form in a really natural environment. . . It's really weird because people are so scared of nudity.’” - Magdalena Wosinka, http://www.stuff.co.nz/travel/news/88262107/naked-traveller-magdalena-wosinska-says-nudity-removes-notions-of-class-and-status?cid=facebook.post.88262107

“. . . my first social nudist experience was at age 16 on a family vacation to New York . . . we decided to go to the beach. . . after we were there at the beach for couple hours, I decided to for a walk by myself down the beach to a lighthouse that I could see in the distance . . . [I] could see a couple of people in the distance . . . they were in fact completely naked.  I was shocked and intrigued at the same time . . . lots more naked people [were] on this part of the beach . . . free and happy . . . [I] decided to go for a dip in the ocean to cool off . . . [and] give it a try well . . . It felt completely awesome to swim naked in the ocean with the ocean waves hitting you, it was a great experience.  After swimming and playing in the surf completely naked for about 15 minutes, I realized that I had been gone for about an hour needed go back to where my family was at on the clothed section of the beach . . . and decided that I was going to walk all the way back to the start of the nude beach completely naked holding my swimming trunks in my hand.  This was great; I could feel the ocean breeze all over my naked body as it dried me off, and when I got to the start of the nude beach I put my swimming trunks back on and returned to where my family had been sitting on the beach” - https://www.truenudists.com/members/blogs/

“If we keep posting our decent nude photos without covering our faces as if we were ashamed of nudity and without hiding our genitals as if genitals were obscene and should be concealed and if we keep talking about naturism and our naturist holidays and our naturist lifestyle, there must come a time when people are so used to seeing and hearing about decent nudity that it is no longer viewed with disapproval.  That is when they are able to draw a distinction between nudity and pornography.” – T.L.

“Charco del Palo, Canary Islands, Spain - On the island of Lanzarote, close to Africa in the Atlantic, sits this small village.  With no restrictions on nudity, it is the perfect remote getaway.  Multiple hotels and rental units make up the majority of the fairly remote village.” (http://charcodelpalo.com/) - https://www.reddit.com/r/nudism/comments/5lpwz5/places_to_get_naked_nudistnaturist_urbanizations/
