Everyone remembers their first foray into nudism and have compared these stories with others. One thing we may not realize is that these stories are similar in other locations around the world.

Read what members of the New Zealand Naturist Federation have to say about their first-time experiences while visiting the Bay of Plenty Sun Club for a Nakation. While all embrace the au naturel lifestyle, the stories of these initial experiences are both similar and different from our own.

AANR has launched a new series of videos to help explain how the Association helps members and clubs, and works for better laws. 

These very short segments, about one minute each, are viewable right on your computer and show photos, footage, maps, and more detailing the work being done thanks to your support.

So far there are three video segments available for viewing on the AANR Advocacy page and on AANR's Nude Recreation YouTube channel. Topics range from AANR's presence at NCSL to a Virginia student being asked to change his clothes when wearing a VitaNuda t-shirt and more.

It was bound to happen. UK-based 3DTVWatcher has announced the release of the world's first full-HD, 3D nudist film, 3D Nudist Adventure. The viewing experience shows a group of nudists hiking, doing yoga and playing in forests.

Marketing Manager Keith Johnson had this to say to those who may be looking for something beyond traditional nudist standards, "With traditional video, you look through a window onto this culture. With Full-HD 3D, you step right through the window, into this world. Our films depict the naturist lifestyle, which in no way involves erotic or sexual activity. These families and individuals have practiced naturism for many years, to enjoy the freedom and oneness with nature that the naturist lifestyle represents. Our movies perfectly capture this lifestyle, and are never explicit or erotic in nature."

While Association business is an important part of these events, conventions are also packed with sports competitions, dances, great entertainment, good food and interesting seminars.
