I am not a total prude, but I've always possessed a degree of awkwardness about nudity. I can change into swimmers in a communal changing room, but I'll do it as fast as I can with my eyes fixed to the floor.
So when I read that naturists have higher self-esteem than those who keep their clothes on, I decided to spend a week in the nude in the privacy of my own home to see what I could learn. I hoped that my naked experiment would make me more comfortable with my body and its imperfections.
I absolutely gained was a sense of "knowing" about my body.

I worked, slept, cooked, cleaned, and got on with family life minus my clothes. Although I was a little apprehensive about my nudity project, on the whole I really enjoyed it.
There were low points. On one of Sydney's excruciatingly hot days, sweat pooled under my unsupported breasts and my thighs stuck to my synthetic office chair. I was extremely uncomfortable and desperate to cover up. On other days, though, my nudity was liberating and fun. There were even a few moments where I felt profoundly present in my body.
Then, one rainy afternoon, I ran into the backyard to rescue some laundry on the washing line. I'd forgotten I was nude, but the feeling of big bulbous raindrops on my skin was heavenly. It was something I hadn't experienced since childhood, and so joyful that I even sashayed around doing a bit of a dance before dashing back into the house with the laundry basket.
Apart from one accidental FaceTime incident (sorry, Jo!), the only people who saw me naked were my husband, who was amused but had no complaints, and my young daughters, who enjoyed poking my "squishy" tummy. By the end of the week, my nudity seemed to be business as usual.
Did it make me more comfortable with my body? Perhaps.
But what I absolutely gained was a sense of "knowing" about my body, as if I had rekindled a childhood friendship, or come home after a long and arduous journey.
There are legitimate reasons why nudity is good for you. As mentioned, University of London researchers discovered that naturists who took part in an online survey have higher self-esteem than their fully clothed peers. They also had better body image and were happier in general. Although the vast majority of survey participants were men, the positive body image effects extended for women, too.
After spending a week naked at home, the prospect of stripping off in public became less daunting. In fact, when I misunderstood an email about this article and thought that my editor was asking me to go to a nudist beach, I didn't completely baulk at the idea.
So, do naturists agree that being naked in public is an important part of the self-esteem equation?
Jenni Parry, 48, has been a naturist for five years. "People are judged by what they wear; the brand and labels of their clothes," she says. "And the fit: is it too tight, too baggy, hanging too low, showing arse crack, too much cleavage – the list goes on. Without clothes, you are accepted as you are." Parry tells me that naturism has released her from "a vicelike grip" of society's expectations of how she should look.
"Once you are comfortable in your own skin, you own your spot in the world," she says. "And man, do I own that spot! Yes, I'm human, so I have moments [of self-critique]. But they are less often and easier to come out of."
Psychologist Dr Samantha Clarke says that many of us view ourselves though a very critical lens: "We don't look at our body as a whole, we focus on the bits we don't like."
Spending time nude can help us perceive our body as a whole, she explains. "Getting comfortable with your body, and being aware of all the amazing things it does, can really help you embrace its assets.
"Your body isn't who you are," says Clarke. "It's just a vehicle that allows you to move around the world."

During my stay, I want to stay naked as long as possible. I want to go shopping naked, eat naked, etc. However, my worry is about if it is too weird. I read several posts and they suggest that fewer people nowadays really enjoy nudity any more, and more people just come to make love.
I worry if it would be weird to wear nothing during both day and night, both in the beach and in the hotel. Temperature is not a major problem for me. I just want to know how many people stay naked in areas other than the beach. I really want to totally abandon my clothes and just wear my birthday suit for a whole week.
Also, I wonder if there are activities here other than drinking/ talking. I'm not the socializing type so I think it would be too lonely just sitting in the room and doing nothing. (Still single now, probably not gonna have a girlfriend)
In general, Naked in the day time seems to be fine, pretty much everywhere in the Ville.
Naked at night not so much, people "Dress" (alarmingly!) for the Nightlife, although some restaurants/bars/quiet places will not turn you away, you might feel a bit of an 'odd one out'!
Of course you know to take your own towel to sit on, wherever you go....
Ville Naturiste Website will let you know what might be going on that would appeal in a more low-key way...
I don't mind going naked on the beach, but even if I don't wear anything else, I will wrap in a sarong or something for the shopping and the 'moving around', call me vain if you like, but I have too many "wobbly bits" now!! :-)
(though I do still have some good bits!)
I am not one for the wild nightclubs, I prefer my own time on the terrace or balcony with some nice wine and a good book, of an evening, and then I can wear what I like, or not wear anything at all!
