Naktiv.net is a Germany-based website that contains both original content and links to international naturist info. For one project, the site's owner, Richard Foley, collected photo submissions to assemble a book titled 'Active Nudists' (http://www.naktiv.net/books/active-nudists.html). I don't have the book - perhaps one of you does and can share a review? Foley is working on a second book project now.
Naktiv has a variety of content is an interesting site to browse through.
Here's its description:
The Nacktiv site has a nice term for the combination of Naked (Nackt) and Active (Aktiv), which we might partially even localise the term into English with a bit of artistic license: Nacktiv -> Naktiv. Naktivities being somethingNaktiv people do whether they are official Nacktivists or not. The key here is not just to be naked but to be active at the same time, (instead of simply lying about roasting in the sun like a dried up old lizard), preferably outdoors because that's where the sun is. Also, this new term particularly embodies people who do not wish to be penned in by the metaphorical bars of traditional nudist camps and clubs. Some people may ask why run around outdoors naked when it is possible to do this indoors, if at all? The reasons are many and each individual will be able to answer this question for themselves better than I, but perhaps there are some common threads which we can mention here: a sense of freedom, a feeling of coming closer to nature, facing personal challenges, challenging commonly accepted society norms and of course simply having fun.
