Bed and breakfast for naturists

Seaside, mountain or lake, every holiday is the same old story: the dreaded luggage!
Am I taking too many clothes? Or are they few? Elegant or casual? Is it gonna be cold or hot?
And this becomes a significant problem if you travel by plane and you have to respect the limits of size and weight per bag.
Not to mention the return journey, full of souvenirs and new purchases that inevitably you never know where to put.

At last the idea of a lovely Swedish lady has worked out all of these problems: she has opened the first bed and breakfast for nudists!
Guests can now leave behind any unnecessary frill such as clothing and enjoy a stay in touch with nature.
Strolls to admire the flowers and animals, sea bathing in the near beach, a greenhouse and even golf: you'll be really spooled for choice in how to spend your days in freedom. Not to mention the SPA and technology with free WiFi access.

These are the characteristics of the B&B "Hylteberga Gàrd Naturist", near Skurup, in southern Sweden, facility operated by a couple, Eva and Steffan, who will welcome you with a fragrant freshly baked cake and… completely naked.

No specific prohibition of wearing clothes, even the "dressed" customers can stay in the quiet of the Gàrd which, with only 4 rooms, also offers the needed privacy and customer care. Beware thought, who knows which manners could rub off on you!
The only recommendation is to schedule your vacation during the summer. Swedish winter is definitely not suitable for naturism.

Ready for a vacation on a farm?

If your idea of vacation does not include spending hours and hours laying motionless in the sun, but you still need to tan to show off back in the office and also spend time outdoors, Wwoof is what you need.

No, it's not the cry of a wolf with hoarseness, it stands for "World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms", an organization founded 40 years ago in the UK thanks to Sue Coppard, a lady from London who wasn't fitting in the metropolis, and which is now present in 14 countries, including Italy.

So far, 344 farms are well prepared to host the willing tourists. Why "willing" you'd ask? Because the food and lodging aren't paid in cash here, but helping out with all the activities necessary to the farm.

Few tens of euros are enough to become a member of the association, to have an insurance covering accidents and medical care, and also to be provided with a regular employment contract.

Only cost not included: the trip.

This is undoubtedly a unique opportunity to learn how to produce cheese, honey, how to look after animals and fields, and why not… to travel the world and meet real people and custom. A low cost trip with something extra.
