More naked tourists


Okay, why is it that tourists feel more inclined to strip off their clothes in public while on vacation?

BELGRADE, Serbia – Two Austrians and a German were fined for cycling naked along the banks of the River Danube in Serbia where a heat wave has sent temperatures soaring.

Temperatures in Serbia and other parts of the Balkans have hovered stubbornly for the past week at around 40 degrees Celsius (104 Fahrenheit).

It’s baffling, simply baffling.

    My guess is that it has to do with the fact that the only people who see them are people they will (probably!) never ever encounter again, so they don’t have to worry about what an impression they make.

    Too much heat?!! Nah

    probably the excitement of getting naked in pulic lured them and adding the fact that they are tourist, not many or no people really know them in the area.

    There is the FKK in Germany and Austria (translates into Free Body Culture) where nude bicycling, hiking, etc–while not common—is not all that uncommon either. It is usually reserved for certain areas, though. But the Austrians and Germans appear always quite keen to peel their clothes off.

Nina Fuentes | Lovin' ManilaNina, going through quarterlife crisis, decided to stop talking about traveling and actually start traveling. Starting with a solo weekend trip to Cebu to a backpacking trip in Thailand and Singapore, she finally made it out of Asia and into Australia. After spending close to six months down under, she's happily settled in Manila (for now), intent to explore the best things the Philippines has to offer.
