Want To Try The New Trend? Who Doesnt Right?

It is amazing how one day having a sex tape is the most devastating news and the next everyone is making one and leaking it themselves, we all know( or i hope you do) that they are driven by money and fame, but what most overlook that they are nude, nude in front of the world or atleast the ones that watch it. more and more woman in movies are going topless all the way to bare completely.

I laugh most of the time, so many of these people who are doing this have in the past said they would not go bare and in fact said they would never ever go bare. and fast forward to 5 years later and the are the first to take it off if it means a major role. I LOVE IT, only because they say one thing and do another then to realize it wasnt so demoralizing and dirty and they actually enjoyed it so much that they now do it on there private boats in the carribean ( lol, not so private when  the pictures leak) and at home and wherever else thay can.

Nudism is vastly becoming  trendy,and for those who have partook in it for years have known the little secret for a long time, when everyone else thumbed their noses these die hards visited resorts, camps,and beaches all dedicated to the NUDIST.

I have written before that so may new nudist walked through the doors at the Terra Cotta ( where 84% are repeat guest that once themselves were first time nudist at TCI)  If you are wanting to try Nudism for the first time and choose to come to the terra cotta here are some awesome and Need to know tips that will help make the trip easy, comfortable and able to do:

First know that the Terra Cotta DOES NOT make you undress to tour our resort or come on grounds ( most do)

We are a 17 room Inn secluded and protected by double locked doors

There are other nudists there, you will not be the only one

we give you the option to wear a towel a wrap and a bathing suit, either the whole time or until you feel your comfortable enough to let loose it (most do it quickly and my advice since i have helped hundreds of first timers is go naked from the second you unpack and leave your room, no one knows you are a first timer unless you tell them) and many have taken that advice and said to me upon leaving that without that small tidbit they would have taken longer to warm up to the fact.

Yes there are nudist in the 80's at our resort, there are nudist that are 80 at all resorts (I assume the older  you are the smarter, since when i have talked with most they all have been nudist for a long time) BUT there are people in their 20's and 30's too and anywhere in between.

no extra fees like most resorts, they charge a grounds fee etc

Day use avail for a very cheap rate of $30-$40 depending on day but still SUPER CHEAP compared to other resorts that are $100 and up. and ours include a FREE Wine and Snacks and Fresh Strawberries brought out by the owner himself in nothing but a smile and Bow tie!

Just voted " best of the Best" and you dont get that just because, we have worked hard to make sure all guests are satisfied and happy.

Our pool is Saltwater and so is our jacuzzi, open 24 hours and so relaxing

I have yet to meet a guest that was unfriendly at the TCI, I guarantee you will leave with A new friend or a TON of them.

it is a place where couples can relax and is a stress Free Environment (since there are no single me)

I can keep going but I wont take up to much more of your time, all i can say is if you never do it you will sit wondering, you will wonder what if instead of say " i did that" when the topic comes up when this trend is super hot!

What does the Worlds Top Nudist Resort, wine tasting, and your better half have to do with this blog, well because I have solved your issue of not knowing what your going to do this weekend. And even if you had an idea of what you wanted to do, strike it and go with this!

::saying this as if you won the trip on a game show::

How bout a fabulous trip to Palm Springs!
you will be vacationing in the worlds sunniest place on earth, perfect weather to go nude sunbathing and relax next to the salt water pool and Jacuzzi, high pressure misters surround the resort, Spa services are avail daily with deals that no other spa offers. Where dining out is easy with hundreds of restaurants, entertainment is easy to choose with venues all over from Palm Springs, to Coachellas most exciting casinos.

wine tasting can be a fun unique way to connect and relax and venture into a new world, and what a great way of doing this then at The Terra Cotta, your worry of driving after is eliminated and it is a great way to make new friends and maybe learning a few new things from them.

below is a great reference as to how to taste wine by the epicentre.com





Tasting Wine


There's more to tasting a glass of wine than throwing it down your gullet. We'll start slow.

Colour
Hold the glass over a white background, like a napkin or tablecloth. Colour varies with age, varietal (i.e. Chardonnay is darker than Riesling) and time spent in the barrel. White wines range from almost clear to pale yellow-green, straw/yellow, light gold, gold or old gold, to maderized brown. Reds can be magenta, purple, ruby red, red, eggplant, brick red or orange, red brown and finally, brown. (If you're not drinking Sherry or Madeira, brown is not a good thing.)

Swirl
Swirl the wine to aerate it. This releases ethers, esters and aldehydes that combine with oxygen to bring you the wine's aroma or bouquet. It doesn't take much practice, but if you're just learning, start with a white or dress down.

Nose
Follow yours. First: the flaws. If there's a moldy, wet cardboard aroma it may be "corky" or tainted. Drink not, or suffer the consequences. Sulfur (burnt match) aromas may dissipate with a little air time or may not even bother you too much, but too much sulfur dioxide is a problem. If your wine smells like Sherry but isn't, that's a problem. Likewise for vinegar. If a wine smells clean, fresh, and ripe to you, get out of the embarrassing tasting spotlight and motion for the waiter to pour. Only cigar smokers swish and contemplate the "legs" of a wine. The "nose" should also be faithful to the grape's variety, which is something you have to learn over time.

Taste
Skip the sip. Soak your taste buds by taking a decent mouthful and rolling it around. Sweetness is detected at the tip of the tongue, so you'll be aware of residual sugar right away. Varietal characteristics are picked up in the middle of the tongue; tannin (in most reds and wood-aged white) starts there. Acidity hits the sides of the tongue, the cheeks and the back of the throat. Oak — despite all the faux connoisseurs waxing poetic about a Chardonnay's "complex oakiness," the presence of oak is usually a negative attribute. Many delicious wines are appropriately aged in oak barrels, a process that enhances a wine's body and viscosity. Many domestic whites under $15 are not just aged in oak but also oak-fermented — that is, artificially sweetened with oak chips, powders, and essences. The process disguises the natural flavour of the grape varietal with what is all too often the rough-hewn sweetness of, say, burnt caramel popcorn. Too much of any one flavour almost always means it's out of whack. Aftertaste is what lingers after you swallow. A long pleasing aftertaste with a nice balance of the other components is the sign of a high quality wine.
Finish
What was the body of the wine like? Light (like skim milk), medium (like whole), or full bodied (like cream)? If it was a white wine, how was the acidity? Too little and flat? Just right, crispy, fresh and pleasing, or too high and burning your mouth? For a red wine, tannins are a big factor. Light tannins make for a soft wine. They can be present, ripe and pleasing, or too high, leaving a dry mouth feeling that may indicate some cellar time is needed to chill out. How long did the "finish" last? A couple of seconds, or much longer, as great wines tend to? Is it ready to drink? Are all of these components appealing to you? Is it worth the price? Can you think of a food it might go well with? And most important: was it good for you?

With Food
.
Remember, red wine is not necessarily more sophisticated than white, and not necessarily the only choice with meat. In fact, because whites are generally lighter in weight than reds, they lend themselves more easily to a wider range of foods. While there are any number of great sipping wines, light- to medium-bodied wines that are high in acidity and sugar and low in alcohol tend to be the most flexible and complimentary to our lighter, more dynamic diets. Food-friendly whites include Riesling, Pinot Gris, Sauvignon BlancBarbera, Gamay, Pinot Noir.

Now with these simple steps out of the way, grab a few bottles, grab some cheeses, breads, etc for your pairing. And book your mini wine tasting nude adventure today.
