There exists a primal and erotic force in experiencing men in the outdoors. We all have experienced the sensation of stripping off our clothing at the beach, in the woods, in the mountains, and even in the snow to feel the earth, air, water, and sun on our bodies.

The sense of freedom is exhilarating, liberating, and even exciting. Once we release ourselves from the fear and anxiety of becoming naked outside we begin to feel more at one with our natural world.

Spring break as a college student was among the most exciting periods of my young life. Packing the beaches with other students to soak up rays, party, and experience the warmth of spring was always, for me, the harbinger of summer to come.

The opportunity to see men in various levels of nudity was intensely exciting to me; the chance of seeing a wayward erection, a flaccid cock slipping out of a pair of old Billabong jams, or the iconic wet tightly whities seductively presenting their contents made the risk of sunburn and hangovers a minor inconvenience.

The experience of being fully naked to the world finally arrived during my sophomore year in college, as I was coming out and meeting other men. These guys knew the outdoor trysting spots, the clothing optional beaches, and even the men-only resorts. The east coast nude beaches – Longnook (Ballston), Gunnison in NJ, Fire Island, Herring Cove near PTown, and several in FL were all on their lists for spring break and summer trips, and I was hot to visit each one.

I much prefer the pristine outdoor panoramas of sun, sky, the beach, and mountains to the clothing-optional resorts and pools. I seek out new places to strip and return to that freedom of the natural world.

I aspire to be able to live in places where clothing is only necessary for social interactions. Where? Hawaii, Costa Rica, Bali, Mexico? I expect to continue to experience them all, as well as summer in the desert, to find my perfect naked home.

Will you be there to experience it with me? Do you have your own experiences of being naked and outdoors? Please share them!
