Heidi Anderson: Skinny dipping with strangers
|
AT the start of 2015, I made a commitment to step out of my comfort
zone this year, and do things that will test my limits while pumping
some adrenaline through my veins. I’ve always played things safely and

completely overstepped my boundaries when I entered the Big Brother
house. But 2014 was a little different — I started a new ....More... |

Nudist bed-and-breakfast inn closes its doors for good in Uptown New Orleans
|
It became clear to Wayne Porter in 2002 that if he wanted to keep his
New Orleans bed-and-breakfast alive, he would have to appeal to a
different clientele. In the eight years he had owned and operated The

Uptown, Porter had hosted thousands of tourists from around the world,
who relished the inn's quirky charm and heated....More... |

Murrumbidgee River in Canberra's south has been a sanctuary for those
willing to shed their clothes and inhibitions. But while the prospect of
public nudity may be confronting to some, an ACT Nudist Club spokesman
said the Kambah Pool was a perfect location for those willing to
experiment with nudity. "We do have people come to us who have never
been nudists before and people certainly go to the Kambah Pools to try
it out for....More... |
