    I met my best friend through this site. After my first trip and posting a trip report. I saw a post from Kristen. We noticed we lived 20 minutes apart from each other and we decided to get together and share stories and pictures. That was 2004, We have been best friends ever since and I don't know how I would have survived my cancer battle in 2010 without her as my entire family lives in Canada and she was my family here. The people I met in person at TTR and online through here were my biggest supporters and made me feel loved and open about feeling comfortable being topless with my battle scars and that is why I love this whole community so so much.

    Put it this way, before Cancun I had few friends and my social life consisted of sporadic contact with a few people from college and I occasionally acted as a hanger-on at things my sister-in-law attended. I was terribly shy and miserable most of the time.

    Since first stepping foot into Paty O, I stepped out of my comfort zone for the first time in my life and actually spoke to strangers (I have Sam and Robin from this board to thank for making us feel welcome that day). I'm glad I did! Since then I've made hundreds of friends and am now in year-round contact with 100+ of my favourite Cancun buddies and consider many of them close friends.

    We only see each other once a year (if that), but for those two weeks in November/December I get to catch up with a great group of people that make me feel good about myself!

    We've now got friends in more places (really should do a road trip!) and actually plan vacation around "when will those people be there"

    The acceptance and the friendships make TTR the real happiest place on earth!

    Coming from a small, conservative town where we live our lives in a glass bowl, TTR gave us the chance to break free from all of that. Now we try to get away for a night more often. We've also decided that we NEED a kid free vacation at least once a year.

    Wow! loaded question. Well, it is where we "jumped" into LS. Don't want to vacay anywhere else, LOVE being topless and ride the plane down in cover up and bottoms....hit the premier desk and hubby signs in, I go strip. WAAAAYYYY more open minded (although LS would have probably brought it on) but TTR kick started it. Cant hear party rock anthem with out thinking of TTR and 40+ year olds jumping up and down dancing. Actually can think cops are cool. Have made great friends that I hope are life time friends, Love Chinos and Cancer Cause, Love Sara69, miss Amy and Nathan......and where are we going to party 2016?

    We have a hard time going other places for vacations. Our family keeps trying to get us to go to different places with them and we always come up with reasons why we cant. And I love shopping for all the theme nights and teasing Tony weeks up to the trip with them :) Plus we really kick up our gym routines and healthy eating habits months before we go so it's a good thing!!

    Temptation IS a lifestyle.
    ...you find people you sync with...drink with...laugh with and do stupid shit with.

    ...actually ... TTR is like a nudist resort...with clothing (after you realize that parts are parts...and sex is more a state of mind...you start to communicate with the people...not worry about the packaging)

    ...then you book vacations around when the biggest group of you can get together ...and all without knowing much or caring much about what folks do the rest of the year...and worse you find that whatever month you go...there's another bunch of like minded folks waiting with open arms to welcome you to the party and become part of it.

    ....where the hell else do you get that?

    ....I have been all over the world..seen most of the fancy resorts, hotels, ships and clubs...and while the destinations are gorgeous and the facilities are pretty...the people are distant and hard to get to know....folks are too busy putting up walls and facades...TTR is about tearing down walls and being yourself....then discovering others who like who that is ...and gasp...are so similar its scary...and so refreshing that you need your little TTR lifestyle gettaway as often as you can fit it in.

    life changing... not sure... more like living!
