I am always bare feet, like always haha I work barefeet even, I play in a band and rarely wear anything on my feet. I live near a riverside so I walk my dog barefeet, anywhere outside really and I probably wont have shoes or anything. Yes occasionally ya have to wear flipflops or I like Moccasins, toms are alright and I do take care of my feet, pedicures when needed but yea theres something so calming and centering about being barefoot like just being in tune.
Yes I know the feeling. Walking around outside feeling the earths many different textures under my bare soles is very calming and relaxing. You are so lucky you get to work in bare feet, I have to wear shoes for my job.
