Enjoy going barefoot

by sharleen wl this is actually the last part of the barefoot staycation series. the title "barefoot in the haunted woods at night" refers to the woods behind my apartment complex where i spent most of the day barefoot the first day of my staycation but didn't want to be there after dark since it's rumored to be haunted. did i finally do it? you'll find out soon. but before we get started... just a little note about aiden the restaurant manager. he left the next morning (tuesday) at around 10:30 and went straight to the restaurant which opens at 11 am after having a fun night in my apartment ;). the following days were pretty much uneventful. nothing super interesting. i mean they were exciting as i got to go barefoot the entire time but i don't want to keep telling you similar things and bore you to tears lol. fast forward to saturday. i spent the whole day with my sister tania who came to visit me and we went shopping and had dinner together. of course she w...

by sharleen wl a while ago someone asked a question on the reddit barefoot sub: "why do you go barefoot?" the following was my answer: "i love the feeling of walking barefoot on different surfaces. from soft dirt and mud squishing between my toes to grass covered in morning dew to the cool floors of a supermarket on a warm summer day. it also allows me to better connect with nature and the world around me. going barefoot also gives me the sense of freedom of not having my feet cooped up in restrictive socks and shoes which make them hot and sweaty. ngl, in my case there's also the rebellious factor. i'm a free spirit who enjoys breaking norms, and going barefoot and getting my feet all dirty is one way to do it." now let me elaborate on this a little. my love for going barefoot began when i was just a toddler and refused to keep my shoes on no matter how hard my parents (especially my mom) tried which drove them nuts. i would often get yelled at and sometime...

by Sharleen W.L. Aloha, this is Sharleen! Hope your enjoying life as its meant to be wherever you are, barefoot or not. This is going to be a very short post for a change. :) Enjoy it! One evening my little brother Kevin and I were going out on a "mock date" (he loves to go out with his favorite sister ). I was barefoot and driving the BMW convertible with the top down. This car belongs to Tania and me (yeah, we used to share a room, now we share a car), and Kevin loves to ride in it especially when I'm driving. So as soon as we entered the freeway, I pressed on the accelerator with my bare foot, the engine revved, and the car zoomed past all other vehicles. Kevin had the thrill of his lifetime. He was like, "Wooww! You really know how to drive, girl!" He then jokingly said he felt like a million bucks riding in a hot car with a hot chick. Being in a naughty mood, I did that once with mom in the car, and she almost had a heart attack. Of course, sh...

by Tania WL (as recounted by my sister Lynn) While I have been living the barefoot lifestyle pretty much since I was a kid, my little sister Sharleen (aka Lynn for short) was a little different. Although she never liked wearing anything on her feet as a kid, her barefooting was limited to inside and around the house. On occasion she would venture out barefoot in the streets of our neighborhood, but not in stores or other establishments. She was a late bloomer. Our little brother Kevin has never been a barefooter. He would go barefoot inside the house as it's the norm here on the islands, but once he stepped outside, even like to the backyard, he would wear Crocs (those shoes with holes on them), his favorite footwear. When we were kids he loved to play and hang out with Lynn coz he said she was the nicest of all his siblings. He didn't like me very much, even kinda afraid of me as I used to be mean to him. Yeah, I used to have a lot of issues as a child and could be nasty at ti...
