Since 2016, four women from a small North Holland village have been splashing in the sea every week. In all seasons. Nude.
From 2020 I splash with them.
When the temperature of the sea water is fifteen degrees, we stay in the water for at least fifteen minutes. If it's five degrees, five minutes.
Why we do it? Because it makes us happy. Pure that.
And in the hart of winter our trepidation en pleasure are highest.
