“I moved to Japan from America seven years ago, before I had kids.  I learned about onsens, the public mineral baths.  Here Japanese children grow up scrubbing their mother’s backs, walking from bath to bath, or showers to bath, with all manners of women.  Girls see teenagers, mothers, grandmothers, all bodies with their different needs and ages, all bodies washed and soaked.  There isn’t shame.  It is healthy, a place where life and rich conversation occur, especially in the period before most Japanese homes had their own showers or baths.” - Melissa Uchiyama, http://centauri4-naturism.tumblr.com/post/157343447626/soakingspirit-why-i-let-my-kids-see-me

[Garden of Eden Resort, Isla Solarte, Panama] “The whole ‘Garden of Eden’ thing isn’t just a reference to you walking around with only a fig leaf on.  Nope, this remote resort in Bocas del Toro goes more all-natural than Adam and Eve by collecting rainwater and powering the joint with solar panels. . . no A/C, no TV, and don’t even think about checking your email . . . if you want a vacation that goes au natural in every way possible, this is one of the best places on Earth.” – Matt Meltzer, https://www.thrillist.com/travel/nation/best-clothing-optional-resorts-in-the-world

“Perhaps, a tee shirt with the slogan ‘LIVE Naked,’ would be better.  Live naked—what a great idea!” - Tom Pine Newdesletter, 17 #1
