Dude man, set me up with a kiwi woman and I'm there!
why you people don't go to a place where going barefoot is normal?

Hello again, "Longboard!"
As we talked about on the other board, I often teach barefoot too & you bet that kids quickly follow suit. It's not hard persuading children to go barefoot. We do need shoes on outside the classroom though. My rank in the herd isn't high enough just yet to push my luck that much.
So for your wife it may not be a barefoot-friendly school per se so much as just being lucky?
But you are attentive to wearing shirts that are long in the back, right? LOL!
Combination of luck, chutzpa, and confidence.
So wait a minute....you've been a member here since November '13 and only posted for the first time today?
Welcome!
I actually found the board some time ago, but to be honest I had sort of forgotten about it until you posted those links. The bulk of my activity recently has been swimming & yoga, with a lot of the former. My boyfriend jokes that I'm channeling Ariel, but he enjoys seeing me in a swimsuit so much!
Moving to a different country is no small thing. Yes it would be nice to be in a place where barefoot is accepted as normal but this is a very minor thing overall in my life. I certainly wouldn't move away from friends and family and all the places I love to go just to be in a slightly more barefoot friendly society! What of us with big families... Some of our wives and children don't even believe in barefoot being better (mine don't) and think we are crazy so its not like they would even have any interest in moving to a different country for that reason. So for many of us this is just not practical.
yep so true, seems people with family is extremely difficult to live in a barefoot friendly country
I've loved swimming all my life. It's awesome exercise, & the best part is you do it in bare feet!Woot! Another swimmer! Welcome!
I've found swimming and running to be quite complementary. I think that there are a few other swimmers on here.
How about yoga too? That's done barefoot.Woot! Another swimmer! Welcome!

Anyone else here into yoga?
How often were you getting massages?
For me they're an occasional treat, & they're the relaxation-type massages. The kind where you feel like you're going to melt, not like Mike Tyson is pounding you within an inch of your life.
Last time was a couple months ago. I received a spa gift certificate & had a day of it. Got a steam bath, a body scrub, a seaweed body wrap, a facial, a massage, & a manicure/pedicure. Yes I felt like I was in Heaven!
I certainly enjoy it. I've been doing yoga since I was a girl.
While about 70% of those regularly doing yoga are women a lot of men get into it too.
So are those terms under the posting name a rank of some kind? What comes after "barefooters?"
I wasn't getting massages very often at all. I pay a monthly membership fee for a 1 hr massage, but had several hours stored up, as I hadn't gone in several months.
I prefer the deep tissue massage, as I find the myofascial work to be beneficial. The first time, I was really sore all over. This time, only my neck and shoulders were sore. I ordered a shoulder massager from Amazon, so we'll see if that does the trick. I hope to be massage-free one day, so I can avoid the membership fee!
