As always I enjoyed your podcast! To answer your question about American Sunbathing, Almost No one in the US sunbath’s topless, most places it is probably prohibited, The only exceptions would be private “nudity” camps, and actually in Austin – TX, the place where I am from, there is this public county park known as Hippy Hollow, which is a rocky beach on our local lake, this is the only place that I’ve ever heard that allows nude sunbathing, but it is really quite a wierd place and has been taken over by the gay community.

American attitudes about nudity and the human form are really different then those of Europe in general. It was refreshing when I saw a Swedish commercial that openly discussed nudity… it seemed so mature? I’m not sure the American public could handle nudity on the beach, there would be those idiots that could not handle the maturity.

Also I must admit, a few years ago, while down in the carribean, I and a group was playing vollyball when several nude sunbathers plopped down beside us… which I must admit made even me uncomfortable.

cheers!

Though born in Galicia, Nieves has lived in Geneva since the age of 9. Spain has changed immensely in the 30-odd years since she left. Though we return each year to her pueblocito in the province of Orense, we don’t have a full sense of what daily life is like. By taking mundane events, like a walk in the park or preparing a meal, your podcasts fill that gap.

We look forward to more.
