by sharleen wl I had previously heard that Seattle was a barefoot friendly city, so I was excited when I had the chance to prove it for myself early last summer. My girlfriend Sandra and I were going on a cruise to Alaska leaving from Seattle. As you know from one of my previous posts ( barefoot thanksgiving break ) I'm bi, and Sandra who was my childhood best friend, is lesbian. Anyway, we were planning to stay in Seattle for a day before the cruise, and we already booked a hotel. It was a quaint little waterfront hotel, and we were lucky to get an ocean view so that we could watch ships pass by. Sandra has relatives in Seattle whom she wanted to spend some time with, so she flew in a day earlier. After being denied boarding barefoot on my trip to Houston the year before ( barefoot thanksgiving break ), I didn't bother trying it this time. I just put on flip flops to board, and took them off again once I was on the plane. I deplaned in Seattle and walked around the airport...
my favorite barefooting surfaces
i love walking barefoot on hard but not rough surfaces. grass and natural ground (soil) are my favorite. it makes me feel close to nature. morning dew feels heavenly! :) smooth pavements are next. indoors i love hardwood floors and marble or ceramic tiles. i don't care too much for carpets since the feeling kinda reminds me of socks!
oh, i forgot to mention a couple of things: mud and puddles are also delicious :) there is nothing like the feeling of having mud squishing in between my toes :)

by sharleen wl that's a question i occasionally get asked by friends or relatives who always see me barefoot. as some of you know i work as a cashier in a restaurant where i can't be barefoot but can wear flip flops (or rubber slippers as we call them here in hawaii). even a few of my coworkers have asked me if i ever wear shoes. so flip flops don't count as shoes. well the answer to the million dollar question (lol) is yes, but very rarely. as i mentioned in a previous post i only own 3 pairs of footwear. the first is a pair of high heels which i only wear to formal occasions like weddings and funerals or when i get invited to a high-end restaurant. one time at a wedding a cousin of mine was like, "wow, fancy seeing you wearing shoes. with heels too hahaha!" i hated wearing them as my feet were painful and sweaty (and probably stinky too lol). when i was seated at the table i took them off to give my poor feet a break. i also have a pair of slip-on sneakers (wit...
A barefoot girl story by Sharleen WL I just started college a few months ago and so far I'm loving it. There is so much more freedom than in high school and not the least is the ability to go to school barefoot. This article is an account of a typical Monday. Unlike many people, I love Mondays coz to me its the start of a brand new week full of opportunities, a new chapter in my book of life ready to be filled with exciting experiences and adventures. Its 7am and I wake up feeling refreshed after a good night's sleep. Actually I'm having a bad cold, so my nose is pretty stuffy but I feel rested nontheless and excited about the day ahead. After washing up and everything, I walk over to the game room to join the family for our morning meditation. Its dad's idea to meditate together every morning and everyone loves it. The only religious person in our family in mom who is Catholic. Dad is kinda new-agey, and all my siblings and I are atheists. But we all feel the ...
a barefoot girl's story going shopping with her strict religious mom by sharleen wl hi everyone, how's it going? this is a rather long post but a pretty fun story. so i want you to get comfortable. get your favorite drink, maybe play some soft music, be barefooted (if you aren't already), take off all your clo... oops, i'm getting carried away. i mean, you don't have to do that. unless your like me of course, lol. anyway, relax and enjoy! my dad is away on a business trip and my mom is home alone. so yesterday she called me and asked if i would wanna go shopping at the mall with her today (saturday). i love shopping so i said sure. she knows that i'm a barefooter and has kinda accepted the fact, so going barefoot to the mall with her shouldn't be an issue. i wake up a little earlier this morning cuz i wanna eat breakfast before going shopping. need the extra energy. the temperature this morning is 61 F which is cold for hawaii. i slept with my windows clos...
by Tania WL I'm a college student, and I go barefoot to school on most days. The only days I wear flip flops are when I have yoga class (which is on Tuesdays and Fridays) as we have to have clean feet. Yeah, my feet get pretty dirty by the end of the day from walking around campus. I love our college library as it's a great place to study and to rest. They have benches with soft cushions where you can lie down and relax or even sleep. I often take a power nap in between classes in the afternoon which is great cos when I wake up I feel really refreshed, especially when I've been burning the midnight oil. One day I was doing just that. I was lying down on one of the benches taking a nap with my dirty bare feet hanging over the edge for everyone who passed by to see. Some would be turned on, some would be disgusted, so what! lol. I woke up after about 20 minutes and sat up. There was a guy sitting at the table across the aisle looking at me. He quickly looked away as I ...
by sharleen wl does wearing just socks count as barefoot? i think most would agree the answer to that question is obvious. barefoot means just that - your feet are bare, i.e. they're not covered in any way. yet its quite surprising this question has come up more than once in the reddit barefoot sub (posted by different people). like wtf? so i replied with a similar question - does wearing just underwear count as naked? i mean your one step closer but not quite there yet. lol i believe this stems from the fact that many people aren't comfortable showing their bare feet. one of the posters even admitted to that. this in turn stems from the fact that many (especially in western countries with the exception of australia and new zealand perhaps) are conditioned to think that feet are like semi-private parts. it's improper/impolite to show them to others except in certain places like the beach or swimming pool. just like men being shirtless. so wearing just socks is like a steppi...
