Lisa 's Story

Those that know me would describe me as a complex person, an enigma, a tree hugging hippie, a procrastinator, a kind, generous, caring person.

I am all of the above – and more a tall person trapped in a short body who loves laughter and sunshine, being silly with my friends and at times enjoying quiet and solitude. Picnics with my friends all naked – enjoying nature – the birds, trees the sound of the surf.

I am a naturist, a nudist – call it what you will, I just love not being clothed – I revel in not having the restriction of clothing and since becoming a naturist my life has opened up for me – I now for the first time accept and love the body God has given me. I am comfortable inside my own skin – so much so I now model for life drawing classes and sculpture classes. Can you imagine how empowering it is to be the only naked person in a room and be comfortable within yourself? I especially enjoy swimming naked – but for me the best is when a gentle breeze washes over my body.

I can be serious at times; I am easily hurt but will never let on when I am hurt. I am brave and courageous at times but also I can be a fraidy little rabbit – see what I mean an enigma! I am slow to anger, but when I am pushed and it will only be some tiny little thing that slips the scale watch out because all 5 foot of me will become a raging tornado!

I am spiritual which is my hippie facet. I believe we are all here for a reason to learn from this life and to move on enriched from our learning and achievements we win here.

I thank God for giving me this life – even though at times it can be incredibly hard and frightening I know that being here in this life at this time and learning all I must learn for this lifetime – it is a gift and an honour to be here.

I know as I grow and learn and age I will find other parts and facets of myself also and look forward to sharing them with my friends and family.
