I’m a normal mother in my 40s but I’ve found a nudist hobby that’s changed my life

Approaching her 40th birthday, Estelle Keeber wasn’t feeling her best.

A single mum to two boys, she had recently lost her beloved nan and had just broken up with Chris, her fiancé of three years.

Knowing she needed something different to pick her up, she organised a week away in Spain with best pal Sarah for them to share an experience which she says has changed her life in ways she never dreamed possible.

Estelle, now 42, from Leicester, tells her story…

‘I guess I’d always been intrigued by the idea of nudist beaches, just letting everyone see you for what you are, no filters, no clothes, all your wobbly bits and scars on show.

‘I’d seen nudist beaches sporadically as a child and young adult, when on various Mediterranean holidays, but the first time I ever properly noticed and thought about them was five years ago.

‘I was in Spain with my boys – then aged 8 and 6 – and seeing those men and women just so incredibly relaxed and happy, for some reason it resonated with me.

‘I didn’t want to shock my boys, and I’m not sure I was quite ready to strip off then, anyway, but that sowed a seed in my brain which, without me realising, grew and grew.
