GAY-TANTRA: Eros and Massage - Holidays Seminar - Vacation is a great opportunity to change old habits, turn towards new things and to overcome boundaries of everyday life. Many men miss the act of touching in everyday life or sometimes it even is a taboo. If at all, touching takes place in order to reach a certain goal: to comfort someone, to have sex, to warm or to receive attention... But it is especially the touch without intention that offers relaxation, energy, peace, the feeling of being accepted and cherished! We want to open up to touch and enjoy it intensely in this vacation seminar. | Algarve, Portugal | more info ...
