would you say naturism is all about connecting with the outdoors through nudity while nudism is the enjoyment of being nude wherever you are?

for the most part, yes. Nudity at home is not rare with naturists though, just not a compulsion. There is a strong feeling of fitness and health though with naturism as compared to nudism. That was the beginning of it in Germany and youth culture, outdoors, family environment. Many Americans do not even know that or care to.

while i'm definitely fit and love to be nude outdoors, i think i'm more a nudist than naturist. maybe its because opportunities for outdoor nudity are so limited. more likely because i'm just wired to enjoy nudity no matter the location. my motivations are to embrace my nude self more than connecting with nature around me.
