Never skinny dipped? Did you hear about my "onsen" adventure here in Japan. Went on a hike, saw Mt Fui clearly which is unusual apparently, used a trough toilet and went to on "onsen". Nude hot springing with ladies I had just met in the hiking group. Am I crazy? They said it is part of being in Japan.
I am shocked and amazed and somewhat in awe! You are so brave! I would never. I don't like changing in the locker room at the gym.
I don't either so I am not sure what came over me other than wanting to have the full Japanese experience. I think it was easier not knowing the ladies.
