I remember many details because it meant the culmination of a long process of personal acceptance and overcoming fears. I visited the beach with my then-partner and my mother, who drove us there. The experience was very liberating and sensory (the avalanche of sensations that invades you when you first enter the sea naked is simply indescribable), and I was naked all the time, going from the sand to the water, and from the water to the sand, until the last moment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;15px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;justified&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;7px||-1px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||21px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>4.

It could be said that, learning to enjoy nature without hindrance, I realized its immense value and that I also needed to protect and care for it to continue enjoying it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;15px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;justified&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;7px||-1px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||21px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>5.
