If your image of naturism involves glamorous beaches, effortless elegance, and year-round sunshine… we regret to inform you that Canada has entered the discussion. Our new article is about naturism from a very Canadian perspective. Sorry, we’re naked eh! 🇨🇦 ournaturistlife.com/2026/04/10/c...

Question for the day. Which is a better first experience: A secluded "wild" area or a structured naturist resort or club? And why? Ournaturistlife.com

Imagine looking out from your balcony at Paya Bay and seeing two naked Canadians on the rocks in the dark with a dive light. Our latest article tells the story, why it mattered, and how the hunt for light and honest memories has never really stopped. Link is on our home page: ournaturistlife.com

Something odd is happening in India. India has never been in the top 10 countries that view ournaturistlife.com. Over the last 30 days, they have climbed to #3. Why is India so interested in naturism all of a sudden? 🤔

Every naturist couple has a different story. Our newest Couples of Naturism feature is with Chad and Genevieve of Big Sky and Bride, talking about vulnerability, confidence, connection, and life as a couple in naturism. Link is on our home page: ournaturistlife.com

Question of the day. Why do we find it easier to share our physical selves with strangers at a park or beach than to share just our choice of naturism with our closest "clothed" friends and family? Ournaturistlife.com #naturism #nudism

One year ago today... we published our first article with no plan. Today: Over 1,000,000 views So we did something uncomfortable… we answered our own “Couples of Naturism” questions. This is our story, one year in. Link is on our home page: ournaturistlife.com

Last night was a big moment for us. We watched the screen hit 1,000,000 views on ournaturistlife.com. 3 days before our 1-year anniversary. 🥂🍻🎉 We’re so grateful to everyone who has joined our little corner of the internet. Thank you for being part of this! 🥰🥰

There’s a kind of glow that doesn’t come from sunlight. Confidence doesn’t arrive all at once. It builds slowly, through acceptance, through letting go of who we thought we had to be. That glow? It’s simply you, finally feeling like yourself. 🥰🥰 Ournaturistlife.com

This was a fun experiment yesterday on Substack. AI is everywhere. Social media and blog sites like Substack need a humanity filter! 😃😁

As we mentioned yesterday, we are closing the Artistic Nude Photos feed at the end of March. We are sharing our lists of Photographers and Models below who have appeared in the feed over the last two years so you can still follow them or pin our list to your own view. 1/3

We have decided we will be shutting down the Artist Nude Photography feed. There is a change coming from @blueskyfeedcreator.com where we now have to upgrade to a premium account as we could hit 126k views this month. They are going to max the views at 50k per month for the tier we are paying 1/2

After writing about predatory behavior in naturism, our inbox filled with stories. People sharing why they stepped away. And some said it was our own fault. There’s a part of this conversation we don’t talk about enough. Corin ❤️ The link is on our home page: ournaturistlife.com

This one took me a while to write. It came from experiences, from messages, and also from moments that stayed with me longer than I expected. It's about people who loved naturism… until one moment changed it. I’m sharing it tomorrow. Corin ❤️ Ournaturistlife.com

When does simply being naked become naturism? It turns out… that’s not a simple answer. We went down that rabbit hole and realized it’s less of a definition… and maybe more of a journey. Where are you on the journey? The link is on our home page: ournaturistlife.com

Why do we love outdoor showers so much? Is it a connection to nature? A sense of freedom? Sensory simplicity? Maybe they feel a little rebellious in the most harmless way possible. I know we want to build one at home! Ournaturistlife.com #naturism #outdoorshowers

Sometimes it’s easy to feel like we’re just typing into the void. And then a message like this arrives… A deeply personal story of shame, healing, and learning to see yourself differently. This is why we keep showing up. ournaturistlife.com/2026/03/19/s...

From the beaches of Thailand to the hiking trails of the UK, Rachel and Russell have seen a lot... usually with a dry robe close at hand just in case! ​ ​Check out the full Q&A with "thenakedhiker" on our blog now. ournaturistlife.com/2026/03/17/c...

If nudity suddenly became as normal as wearing socks… would naturism lose something? It’s a strange question, but the more we thought about it, the more interesting it became. ournaturistlife.com/2026/03/13/n...

When Experience Makes Us Forget the Beginning Sometimes, we get so comfortable in our own skin that we forget how much work it actually took to get there. ournaturistlife.com/2026/03/09/e...

Someone asked whether circumcision matters in naturism. It’s a reasonable thing to wonder about, especially if you’re new to the philosophy. So we wrote about it! ournaturistlife.com/2026/03/06/c...

It’s a pretty amazing feeling when the shame finally disappears, fear stops running the show, and you realize you no longer give two f%&ks if others judge you for enjoying just being nude. That’s a kind of freedom few people ever allow themselves to experience. Ournaturistlife.com

Is Naturism Struggling in a World Where Politics Has Become Personal Identity? Politics stopped being something people had opinions about & started being something people were. And once politics becomes part of identity, it doesn’t stay neatly outside your life. ournaturistlife.com/2026/03/03/p...

On No Discrimination Day a reminder for Black and Brown naturists your presence is valued your voice matters your bodies count

When I finally asked the question that was on my mind from my last article... I was surprised by Kevin's response. "Why do you want to do this?" Here’s the honest story of that moment. ournaturistlife.com/2026/02/28/p...

It's a frustrating online world we live in when you have to investigate every story, every photo, and every video... and then decide if it is real or fake. Ugh! Don't just assume what you read or see. Triple and quadruple check everything.

As we curate our Art Nude Photography feed, we're constantly inspired by the level of professional work out there. So instead of just admiring it... we hired a pro to coach us. She is a 10 year professional model & photographer. Two sessions in the spring. Camera settings, lighting, posing & 1/2

How to take nude photos? We promise the answer isn’t better lighting, more dramatic angles, or Zooming in “closer”! It’s something way simpler… and way harder. If you’re going to share yourself, don’t just share skin. Share you. Our new article is out! 😊😊 ournaturistlife.com/2026/02/24/h...

Congratulations team USA! And congratulations to our Winnipeg Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck. One hell of a battle.

Corin had this idea... so we just had to find the place and time to execute. This photoshoot was a lot of fun! We added a sideshow of some of the images to our website photography page. 🥰🥰 ournaturistlife.com/photography/

Has anyone ever seen a chair like this? It was at our resort. We can not find it online. It might be a one-off custom art piece, but it's pretty neat. Kevin is now trying to figure out how to sculpt one of my butt for my office! 😅 Ournaturistlife.com

When Kevin suggested a clothing-optional resort, my first thought wasn’t “freedom.” It was... “Why?” I almost didn’t try naturism. Here’s the honest story of what was going through my head. (Especially for women who are nervous but curious.) ournaturistlife.com/2026/02/18/f...

Most naturist days are peaceful and grounding. This one didn't end that way, and it led to an important conversation. We’re sharing a real incident, Corin’s perspective, and a practical naturist safety checklist for clothing-optional spaces. ournaturistlife.com/2026/02/15/a...

Well... we made it home. 48 hours later than planned. First flight home was cancelled while we were waiting at the airport in Saint Martin. So we had to rebook for the next day. Which meant we also had to stay overnight in Toronto. Then fly from Toronto to Calgary to Winnipeg. Fun fun! 😃😁

We hiked up to Happy Bay beach today from Grand Case because we had to get our usual vacation date and location made in the sand. It's such a wonderful island that we still have not explored all of yet. 🥰🥰

Sometimes there’s a question naturists don’t like to talk about out loud... even though everyone else is thinking it. Are naturists exhibitionists? We decided not to dodge it, soften it, or pretend it never comes up. ournaturistlife.com/2026/02/10/n...

We were happy to get one more day on Orient Beach before the weather turned. The wind picked up, and we got sandblasted. We were washing sand from places sand shouldn’t be! But the next couple of days are worse. So to the south side tomorrow. 😊😊

We don't really know what metrics they are using, but we will celebrate it anyway! Thank you to everyone who has supported us. Ournaturistlife.com. Please also go check out all the other naturist bloggers on the list and support them as well. bloggers.feedspot.com/naturist_blo...

We had a quiet day today. We went shopping in the morning and then spent the afternoon around the pool. It was quiet and we had the place to ourselves. 🥰🥰 Ournaturistlife.com

We decided to treat ourselves today with something we have never done before. We stayed at the naturist resort and brought in a massage therapist so we both could get a treatment. My sciatic feels much better and I think Corin enjoyed it very much! 🥰🥰 Ournaturistlife.com

Yes... even on vacation we are still constantly working. It just makes it a bit more enjoyable. 😃😁 #NationalWorkingNakedDay #WorkNakedDay

Just a bit of art to end another wonderful day in Saint Martin. We are writing all about our adventures for a future article. 🥰🥰 Ournaturistlife.com

This shit happens way too often... and it’s frustrating. "There's a myth floating around social media that once you post a photo publicly, it magically becomes free." We break it all down here: ournaturistlife.com/2026/02/05/n...

So we wondered off the beaten path to check out the "non nudist" beaches. At least topless is allowed everywhere. And Corin says "Hey! I have my white cover up... that would make great photos!" So yes...500 photos later... 😃😁 Ournaturistlife.com

It's a rainy day here in SXM. And that's OK. Sometimes, you just need downtime to never put clothes on all day and never have to leave the resort. 🥰🥰 Ournaturistlife.com

Our favorite kind of beach day. Becoming accidental naturist ambassadors 😄😄 Today... we introduced two friends we met here to their first real naturist experience on Orient Beach. One took the slow lane, one hit the express lane... both ended up fully smiling and fully free by the end of 1/2

It was an interesting first day on Orient Beach today. We had two people come up to us and ask "hey aren’t you OurNaturistLife? We love your website". That's a bit humbling. 😊🫠

We just published our latest Couples of Naturism article. Say Hi to Andrew and Lisa. "There’s nothing sexual about it. It’s just people enjoying being in their own skin and enjoying being naked together, usually in nature." ournaturistlife.com/2026/02/01/c...

Headed to Orient Beach today and relocating to that side of the island. Tomorrow we’re bringing some new friends we met here and giving them their first real introduction to naturism. No pressure, just a relaxed day, and the simple experience of how normal it all feels once you’re there.

Yesterday we went to Cupecoy Beach. Unfortunately, we got hit by a rogue wave that threw Corin into me and then me into the rocks. Ouch! So we spent the rest of the day around the pool as I nursed my wounds. Corin only got a bit of bum rash, thankfully. Ournaturistlife.com
