| Hi there! My name is Polina and I’m going to have a barefoot diary on city-feet web site! This summer I discovered a barefoot style of life and now I love it so much )) I took part in barefoot photosession (http://www.city-feet.com/models/93/view) and I walked without shoes with great pleasure. I didn’t imagine that it’s so amazingly and comfortably!! So I’ll show the photos of my barefoot walks and hope you’ll like it!    |

| Always great to have a girl kind enough to share her barefoot adventures. Especially if you are brave and kind enough to show your feet off publicly, show them to passers by and challenge them on difficult surfaces such as snow and gravel Look forward to seeing your diary |
| Posted by: DG2001 Jan 4 2011, 07:59 PM |
| Welcome aboard Polina! It will be great to have not one, but two beautiful barewfooter girls sharing her life and adventures here in City Feet. When will you start posting? Won't it be hard for you to walk barefoot in winter, how though your soles are? Will you put your feet through endurance tests and dares? Best of luck with your Diary, enjoy it and have fun beeing a Barefooter. |

| I'm a beginner in barefoot life so yet I don't put my feet through very hard endurance tests:) It was great to walk barefoot in summer but little experiments getting to be interesting for me. I walked barefoot on snow (it raises the mood very much  ) and climbed up the hill with gravel surface.Unfortunately I have very delicate feet, because of it all my life I wear comfortable shoes like trainers. But even in that time many corns attack my feet  Suppose I'll start to post within the next few days  Thank you for your attention http://www.city-feet.com/images/get/large/41935.jpg |

Welcome to City Feet Polina! It's great having you here. Thanks for sharing your barefoot adventures with us, hopefully with practice and time your soles will become tougher and harder. |
| Posted by: Clipper Jan 4 2011, 11:31 PM | ||
| Hi Polina, every new barefooters girls is for us a joy,virtually we should make a fest for it I will follow your diary with interest.
At the beginning is normal,continue to walk barefeet on surface progressively more difficult,and your soles will became thick and tough as leather. Like the soles of many girls on this site... |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 5 2011, 09:25 AM |
| Thanks everybody!:) Ya, now every morning I walk on the snow around my house. Soon my feet'll love a cold:)I'm a barefooter just few months - don't judge strictly please |
| Posted by: bemused Jan 6 2011, 10:47 AM |
| Nobody will judge you at all, as long as you do your best and proudly show off your feet in public and on as many challenging surfaces and weathers as you can. Be proud of your feet and enjoy showing them off! |

| OK! this photo of my first endurance test: clumbing up mountain! I'll never forget it!))))  |
| Posted by: iiyamaxx Jan 7 2011, 03:45 PM |
| Nice! Will this video of your mountain climb show up on city feet? |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 7 2011, 07:10 PM |
| Ya, I have 2 videos - but its just 1 min, I'll attach it in my diary on city-feet |
| Posted by: Clipper Jan 8 2011, 12:08 AM |
| What about your sensation I imagine you felt a lot of pain douring the climbing on so much gravel... |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 9 2011, 09:11 AM |
| During climbing up I was walking slowly and carefully. So it wasn't very difficult:) We took photos and admired scenery:) Nearer to the top my feet were painful. But I have thought I only rest and way back will be ok. But no))) It was terribly, like hell))) I finished this walking tour almost on all fours:). All that day my feet felt pain, and next morning too. But nothing serious:) |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 9 2011, 09:15 AM |
this is one of winter walks  Gerda licks my feet:))) |
| Posted by: DG2001 Jan 9 2011, 11:24 AM | ||
Hi Polina Your feet will soon get stronger and you will get used to the pain, hope the pain doesn't stop you from becoming a barefooter. About the endurance tests, now that it's cold maybe you can try some ones that involve heat. |
| Posted by: DG2001 Jan 9 2011, 11:26 AM | ||
God! It's amazing you've walked barefoot on such harsh terrain Polina! You're very brave. |
| Posted by: Clipper Jan 9 2011, 06:18 PM |
| Douring the way back your feet had already tired from the previous climbing up,and also,if the way you walk was in slope,your soles had different load : douring the climbing up the most load is on the heels of feet,douring the climbing down the most load is on the forefoot,probably a bit more tender than heels. As said by DG2001,continue,obviusly without exaggeration,and your feet will soon get stronger and tougher. This path should be a verify for test your progress,maybe doing it a regular interval of time. Congratulations for your strength of will...continue this way... |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 9 2011, 08:37 PM |
| Thank you for comments!:) DG, you are right, I think it's a good time for heating tests! I yet put out cigarettes on my feet, you'll can see it at next part of my moscow photosession. It was very scary at first time:)))) but it's not painfully:) I'll train with hairdryer too!! I liked to walking on stone surface. Ya, it was painfully, but it's such good massage))) soon I'll be very healthy)) Clipper, when I'm climbing up I tired to have even load, not only to heels or toes. But when I'm climbing down nothing can help me)) After this trip my heels are not pain. it's more strong ya:) Pain doesn't scare me. It's not bad for my health so I'll continue ))) |
| Posted by: iudicator Jan 9 2011, 10:47 PM |
| Welcome, Polina, here too! I must say that your pics are more than gorgeous. And your spirits are most impressive! I'm totally admiring you, so keep it up, and keep showing us your progress as a true Barefoot Girl We are proud of you (at least I am )! |
| Posted by: Clipper Jan 11 2011, 12:47 AM | ||||
Try..,but I suggest you to not exxaggerate for now,and I would like to clarify that barefooting is a very healthy practice on natural "normal" surfaces : very sharp gravel,stones,thorns,clods,forest ground...can be very painful for tender soles,but are natural surface and our soles should be trained to resist to them,like population that never wear shoes. Africans,indios and many other population walk barefeet all the life,but certainly does not overheat the soles with an hairdryer...
Exactly : pain,in this case, is the only way to very healthy feet,and healthy is the most important thing,callused leather soles will then be a consequence. |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 12 2011, 10:37 AM |
| There is a winter now in Russia. Very much snow:) I wanna walk on gravel, stones ,forest ground and etc very very, but its not possible (( I'm waiting spring and summer!:) Now just snow and hairdryer))) Clipper, yeath, I know this pain is very good for health. That's a one of the reasons I decided to walk barefoot!:) Its really like this! Spanish streets=) http://www.flickr.com/photos/57877925@N07/5348892872/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/57877925@N07/5348282945/ |

| Nice job Polina Keep it up You said earlier "I yet put out cigarettes on my feet, you'll can see it at next part of my moscow photosession. It was very scary at first time:)))) but it's not painfully:) Rather than hair dryer which would put heat on non calloused arch off foot, do you think you could practice maybe with cigarettes? It's very impressive you said you put one out and wasn't painfull. Did you put the cigarettes out just for the photo session or do you do it all the time? |
| Posted by: Burkhard55 Jan 12 2011, 03:38 PM |
| Hi, where are your 2 videos? Can you give a link to it? |
| Posted by: Clipper Jan 12 2011, 11:54 PM | ||
I can imagine that,russian winter is colder than italian one,and with much more snow... We wait for springer and summer too ! Notice : in Russia lives Olga Gavva,a "legend" of barefooting,probably you already know,but if not go to her site : http://dirtysoles.ucoz.ru/index/0-2 her photos are very interesting...I do not speak russian so I can only watch the photos...  |
| Posted by: b'ftlvr2008 Jan 13 2011, 03:57 AM |
| I've seen Olga's site before, maybe this will help. Her English version, http://dirtysoles.ru.net/_eng_life_extrime.html Polina, what do you think about about her (Olga's) inuring section and photo's? |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 13 2011, 07:55 PM |
| b'ftlvr2008, I don't smoke, so I put cigarettes out only in photosession. It was my second cigarette in life:)) but sure, I'll buy cigarettes only to use it in my mercenary aim)) cas as I said, I like it=) Burkhard55, I tried ti attach it to flickr, but I can't. you can see in my diary - link: http://www.city-feet.com/video/705/view http://www.city-feet.com/video/706/view Clipper, are you from Italy? I didnt know about Olga Gavva yet. thanks for link) I dont have enough time to see it in detail, but I saw some pics - its wonderful! dont thought that such girl lives in Russia:) its cool=) hey, guys! Right now I saw a wonderful film! suppose, you've seen it, but if no, advice - just see!!! german film, named "Barfuss" (2005). I love it so much! And I wanna walk barefoot more after this film and I miss my barefooting walks all day long in the summer! enjoy! |
| Posted by: DG2001 Jan 13 2011, 11:35 PM |
| Barfuss is a cool film! I saw part of it. Glad it has inspired you Polina! It's a good thing you don't smoke, it's bad for your health. Thanks for the recent updates, we'll be looking forward for more. Спасибо большое! |

I wanna try to put some cigarettes at ones. and sure I'll photo it) But I have spanish photos, dont forget) I'll attach it in my diary |
| Posted by: DG2001 Jan 14 2011, 02:00 PM | ||
Good luck with your exams Polina! I am sure you will succeed thanks to your efforts and dedication. Make sure you wear no shoes nor socks as you solve the exams, that will make you feel more relaxed. Just remove your footwear and socks, put them under the desk and do the exam barefoot. ¡Buena suerte! |
| Posted by: iudicator Jan 14 2011, 10:44 PM |
| DG, get out of my head, okay? Polina, good luck to your exams, and do as DG (and I) told you |
| Posted by: DG2001 Jan 14 2011, 10:48 PM | ||
Ha ha ha! Great minds think alike Iudicator! Regards DG (One step ahead!) :-) |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 15 2011, 08:29 AM |
| ) May be I'll try, guys)) Thanks) Hope, lecturer'll not think I'm crazy:) |
| Posted by: iudicator Jan 15 2011, 09:17 AM | ||
What if he does? At least you'll have a topic to converse of and not on the subject of the exam  |
| Posted by: Clipper Jan 16 2011, 12:09 AM | ||||||
Yes,I live in Italy,where find a barefooters girl is about impossible...
I wish you very much good luck. what are you studing ?
I do not know...,if professors are like italian type,is better you wear shoes douring the exams. University professors should be very open minded,but,if not,you can risk something about... What about driving ? Do you have driving license ? Do you drive the car barefoot ? |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 16 2011, 08:49 AM | ||
Clipper, you never see barefoot girls in Italy, ya? Thank you for your wish with my exams=) It's interesting, where are the largest number of barefooters? Guys, you love barefoot girls. Every of you want to have a barefoot girlfriend or no? =) About barefot exams: I'll look at situation. Caz if professor just will think I'm crazy - its not the trouble =) but if he'll think that a crazy girl doesn't have to pass exam it'll be a problem Clipper, I dont have driver license, but I wanna to drive so some time later I'll go to autoschool! And when I can drive good, sure, I try to drive without shoes, its so cool I think! |
| Posted by: Clipper Jan 16 2011, 04:43 PM | ||||
Never see italian girls barefooting,worse,in this last years they start to wear plastic flip flop even on the beach...
Pedals of normal cars are covered of plastic/rubber,quite soft,so you should not have problem to drive barefoot...but with leather soles will be better Did you see this photo link ? (by one member of this site) : http://www.flickr.com/photos/bft247/ |
| Posted by: Paul Jan 16 2011, 06:00 PM |
| Clipper, please, don't post links to male feet on this forum. |
| Posted by: iudicator Jan 16 2011, 07:37 PM |
| Paul, believe it or not, these are actually female feet, inured and hardened, though apparently not very well pedicured... |
| Posted by: Paul Jan 16 2011, 08:53 PM |
| May be, but I'll believe when I'll see full-body shots. It's suspicious when there are no face shots... I hope Polina will not be frightened for her feet Many girls walk barefoot, but only a few have feet in such bad condition. |
| Posted by: iudicator Jan 16 2011, 09:03 PM |
| If you browse through the gallery (not very easy for one who likes pretty feet, I must admit) it turns out pretty clearly that the model is his girlfriend/wife... |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 17 2011, 05:37 PM | ||
Clipper, what for you show me this link:
=)))) At first sight it seems like male's feet, but at one photo I saw a bracelet, so it must be girl:) I didn't finish to see all pics. any way I don't wanna have feet like this Sorry =) |
| Posted by: b'ftlvr2008 Jan 17 2011, 07:52 PM |
Polina, I just watched your lastest update where you put all the cigarettes out barefoot. Very very impressive  Did you feel anything while you were doing it? I've dated many barefooter girls and that was as good as any of them could do that. I hope to see you do that many more times in the future, especially when it get warmer and you can enjoy going barefoot in the summer. And as far as that link to the phots's,, your feet never have to look like that.Like I said I've dated many barefooters and none of there feet looked that bad. None. What I always wondered about that photo group is that there is never no "action" pic's ( pic's of actually doing things barefoot) Your soles will get thicker callouses, but they can always look as pretty as they do now. You're the perfect barefoot girl, keep having fun with it and I am so glad you joined us and I love hearing your commentary. (wish some was in English) |
| Posted by: Clipper Jan 17 2011, 07:56 PM |
| Paul,I gived this link,taken on this site some month ago,because I belived that the photos are of a woman,the girlfriend/wife of bft247,and you can see some photos with also the legs,that clearly seem girls legs. Theorically can should be all fake / photo-montage,but I do not belive that. Polina,do not worry,you do not need to make soles like you see on this link,I have posted it only for "see and know". |
| Posted by: iudicator Jan 17 2011, 09:34 PM | ||
I can only second that (except the part about dating barefoot girls, which is unfortunately not true for me... ) |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 18 2011, 05:19 PM |
| Guys! thank you for your comments! its very pleasant to read! I hate smoking, and I never smoke, but its one weakness - I love to put it out my feet! its.. funny..and just wonderful!))) I feel warm, but nice warm. not a pain hope, I never have feet like that photos and think - my feet can't be like this caz that very delicate, and doesn't need often be pedicured! haha:) love you:) see in my diary how I put cigarettes out my feet at home! I'm posting right now there |
| Posted by: gothrocket Jan 18 2011, 06:13 PM |
| Polina, I love that you are trying to go barefoot a lot and trying this barefoot diary. Your posts are some of the most attractive I have seen. I have to say though that I don't understand why so much time is spent on putting cigarettes out on your feet, I would prefer to see you walking around places looking beautiful in your bare feet. |
| Posted by: like_them_dirty Jan 18 2011, 08:13 PM |
| Polina, you're amazing. Count me as your fan. Too bad it's winter, I hope you will keep your enthusiasm till spring and summer I have a question for you - have you heard about the barefoot/minimalist footwear running movement? Do you go running sometimes? Have you ever thought of barefoot running? Check out for example: http://www.barefootangiebee.com/ http://www.barefootrunners.org It started with the book Born to Run which became bestseller. Now thousands of runners worldwide trash their expensive running shoes which were only harming their body and learn to run barefoot. Lots got rid of their back pain etc., so it seems really a good way of running. I think you can try it to do something for your health and moreover you will have lot of material for your blog. I'm sure that everyone here will apreciate it. Am I right? |
| Posted by: like_them_dirty Jan 18 2011, 08:15 PM | ||
I second gothrocket's post. I don't understand this cigarette thing as well. Those who are into extreme stuff are probably only very active at this forum posting every day, so the demand does seem to be higher than really is. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean I don't tolerate it or so. I just skip those extreme sessions as boring and go to preferable themes like simple barefooting in the city, getting soles tough & dirty. PS: That's nothing against you, DG2001 or clipper, I totally get that we are each into slightly different stuff and it's Paul's choice to fulfil our wishes as he thinks is the best. Extreme stuff doesn't appear very often nor is predominant at the City-Feet, so it's more than tolerable |
| Posted by: DG2001 Jan 18 2011, 10:33 PM | ||||
It's OK my friend! Not taking it personally, everybody has his own taste, and it's up to Polina and Paul to decide what's posted here and what not. I would really like to see Polina walking barefoot in public places, malls, in the street, doing some barefoot hiking, etc. but let's remember it's Winter in Russia...so I guess she doesn't have too many chances to go barefoot outside for long periods of time... so, I think she's testing herself indoors and also inuring her soles, training them for the Summer. Something that's fascinating about Polina is her attitude....she's easy going, really kind and friendly, and not afraid to test anything. She's a brave girl who has discovered a new lifestyle, who has become a barefooter... and enjoying it! I am sure she's here to stay :-) |
| Posted by: DG2001 Jan 18 2011, 10:36 PM | ||
Smoking is bad for health Polina, it's great you have found another fascinating use for those cigarettes! :-) Thanks a lot for that wonderful Diary update... I wonder what other surprises you'll have for us in the near future! Well done girl, I can see you're really a commited barefooter and that you're enjoying this lifestyle you have recently discovered. Keep toughening the soles of your feet and getting ready for the warm season! |
| Posted by: Clipper Jan 19 2011, 12:51 AM | ||
Very nice ! Do not smoke,is bad for health. If you can put out many cigarettes without pain means that your soles start to be used to hot,a nice thing... How do you feel your soles / feet ? You start to feel your soles stronger,harder ? And,the most important thing : do you feel better in new barefeet lifestyle ? I really hope so,and I hope to read your wonderful diary update for a long time. |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 20 2011, 09:55 AM |
| gothrocket, thank you for kind words!) you know, I like walk barefoot at summer and spring, when the weather is good and warm. It gives me much pleasure and comfort. Barefooting in winter, putting cigarettes and something else – it’s just for my interest, for impressions and new experience. May be attempt to know myself:) To tell the truth it’s very interesting to do these tests. But I guess, I never do something too crazy =)) Soon I’ll post Spanish and Russian pics in my diary – nice memories:) like_them_dirty, it pleases me to know you’re my fan)) yes, I have heard about barefoot running, but yet I don’t think about it FOR ME. I’m not very sporty girl, I can’t run So I didn’t read enough about barefoot running, truly I thought it’s not good for feet. But may be no! I’ll read this information, and if its really healthy, may be I have to start? So I’ll be more healthy, more pretty and you’ll see these photos in my diary soon!=) Thank you for this idea!!:) DG, you’re always very kind to me:) And you’re right, there is winter in Russia, so I can’t walk barefoot much time. I have many Spanish and Russian photos, where I’m walking in the streets, around nice places. But I wanna post not only those pics but “online pics” too:) And how I said, wanna have few tests!) Clipper, my feet are feeling good:) But I don’t notice it become stronger. Cigarettes isn’t very hard test, but aroma sticks are. But it works just point places, you know. I think, more powerful and good experience and tests I’ll get in summer, ya!Sure I feel .. freedom with my barefooting lifestyle! Before it I even didn’t think about taking off my shoes. It never come to my brains!)) Now I know that I can take off and go on my walk and don’t have a problems))) Yahoo))) |
| Posted by: DG2001 Jan 20 2011, 11:18 AM |
| Hi Polina Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer in spite of your hard exams! I am sure you will succeed, good luck! Yes, winter is hard for barefooting, but I hope you can take some pics of you walking barefoot at malls, train stations and in your university: at campus, classrooms, the library... I am sure your friends will be glad to help taking pictures of you. Maybe you can take pictures with your teachers, while you're barefoot! It's cool you like the tests, wow! What other ideas do you have in mind, you brave girl? Have a good day and keep studying! |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 22 2011, 10:48 AM |
| Thank you, DG!!=))) Right now I back from university, where was the exam! yes, at Saturday!!! Got "5"!!! your wishes helped me!!=))) yahoooo)))) now in my diary I'm posting some spanish pics It was very sunny day. I miss sun and warm!! There is very cold and snowy in Russia!!! |
| Posted by: iudicator Jan 22 2011, 01:13 PM |
| Yaaay, Polina, you rock! A beautiful, nice and CLEVER barefoot girl, can get even better? |
| Posted by: b'ftlvr2008 Jan 22 2011, 03:03 PM |
| Polina, Love your posts and diary. You remind me of a gal I dated in the 80's. Very feminine with long brown hair, and she too loved putting cigarettes out barefoot. I remember when we first went out. She was going barefoot and getting used to walking on rocks and gravel but looked at me one day and "but I can put a cigarette out barefoot" and showed me. She said she'd always been able to do that. After she showed me, I was fascinated with it, I'd bet out of a pack of 20 cigarettes, she put 19 out barefoot. Even if we were driving around and I had one, she'd put her foot in my lap and tell me to put mine out with her foot. She loved the sensation and loved I that I embraced and encouraged it to. Like you, I found the contrast of feminine and kinda tough very mysterious and fascinating. I love your enthusiasm with putting them out and your barefooting in general. I can't wait to see your next udate or diary entry. Maybe putting out cigarettes can be your "trademark" since you seem to have so much fun with. Include it a little in all all posts And, good job on the school exams. Brain, beauty and fascinating. On a scale of 1 to 10,, an easy 12 |
| Posted by: Clipper Jan 22 2011, 05:55 PM | ||||||
I fully agree ! No, we can't get better,is already the best !
I hope our wishes had helped ! In Italy the the votes of the university exams go from 18 to 30,where 18 is the minimum to be promoted and 30 is the maximum votation. I imagine that in russian the votation scale method is different,"5" is a good result ? I hope so...we want you became a very good building /construction engineer... And also a new very pretty barefooters In Italy in about 1 month winter will finish (finally...) and the springer will start (about 10/15 °C),I wish that in russian will be the same,so you will start barefoot outdoor more frequently.
Your feet need more time,in springer/summer,if you continue to walk barefeet a lot,you will notice that... |
| Posted by: Tibetka Jan 23 2011, 08:10 AM |
| Ya, I forgot to say, in Russia we usually have 5 marks scale, so I got maximum, but don’t think I’m very clever))) Besides, I’m not sure I’ll be a constructor %-) Yet I don’t know whom I wanna be… Any way it’s very pleasant to read such posts, thank you!! =) Clipper, you have just ONE month of winter in Italy!!! And you want spring’ll quickly come?!? Oh!! At least because of solidarity you can get some cold!)))) Be barefoot all year long – is my DREAM!!! I hate shoes caz it chafes my feet, it hurts so I get corns! I love Russia so much, Russian people and Russian language, but its pity we have such weather.. b'ftlvr2008, I’m very glad you consider my barefoot style is good! Ya, I like put cigarettes out my feet but I don’t smoke and my friend and family either. So it’s a little problem)) I must find cigarettes anywhere)) It’s just a prank, but barefooting in the streets is fully pleasure=) |

| Hi Polina Congratulations for your excellent grades! Hope you can delight us with some pictures of you barefoot at university. Maybe you could make a trip to a warmer place after your exams! Can you imagine living in a warm country, never ever wearing shoes at all...not even owning a single pair? Have a good Sunday! |
| Posted by: Clipper Jan 23 2011, 11:11 PM | ||||||
No,we have 3 month very cold,but 2 are almost passed (december and january),another month and,for march,the temperature will be quite better...for some hours a day...
Is also our dream to see your photos barefeet all the year But I think is very hard to realize.
Is a sign of destiny,you have to prefer to go barefeet Here some link maybe can interest : http://www.unshod.org/pfbc/ http://www.barefooters.org http://www.symbioseweb.de/barefoot.html |

| Hi everybody! Today I have an exam, got 4 of 5 =) if its a sign of destiny about barefooting - so it must not be hard to realize barefeet life all year long =) go to the warm country, example Egypt, become 33th wife =) Clipper, thanks for links, ll see it! |

Congratulations again! Did you study barefoot? Hope you can soon go barefoot all year round, 24/7/365. If you were in a warm country....would you dare not owning shoes anymore Polina, living a barefoot life? |

Very well,continue this way.
Warm weather is a important condition for barefooting all year long,but not the only one. You should also train your soles... You already are on the right way,but before became a true 24/7/365 barefooter you will need time... And consider that in very hot country,like Egypt,you will be the opposite problem : month too hot for barefooting... |

| Polina, it is nice that you are braving the snow. What if, on a free day, you tried to spend most or all of the day barefoot? Going outside wouldn't be necessary if it is too cold, but you could walk in the stairwell of your apartment building, or other places indoors that most people wouldn't go barefoot. At the end of the day, you could take pictures showing us how dirty your feet have become. |

| gothrocket, I was thinking about barefooting all time during few days. Will not take shoes and be barefoot all places all time. But its more possible and interesting in summer. I can be barefoot all time with my not trainning feet) I'll think up a trip, take with me a friend and make some photos! =) but now you can see photos from Spanish airoport=) I liked be barefoot there 0:-) |

| Hello all, I noticed a discussion going on around my girlfriend's feet. Yes they definately are my girlfriend's feet and i enjoy photographing them. They are 100% female! I like the wide appearance and the high arches and when photographing her feet, i try to do it in such a way that as much details as possible can be seen. She is barefoot most of the time and she runs barefoot to stay in shape. Many, if not all, of you consider her feet to be gross and too rough, even down right ugly. I personally don't. I like the natural rough look of her bare feet. This is what female feet look like after persistent barefooting. She does not pedicure her feet because she needs the protective layer of callous when running. All the pictures you see on my stream are genuine and only edited to bring out the details of her feet. Regards BFT247 |

I had NO doubt
Is the exact opposite :most of us consider her feet an example of how girls feet should be (otherwise we would not enter on this site...)
I noticed that she pedicure the top part of the feet and the nails,so she has this wonderful double appearance : pedicured on the top / strong and callused leather on the bottom soles. And are the feet Polina has to made if she want reach the goals of walk barefeet over everything... |

| Heyyyy!!! What?!?! Really, I don't understand this:
I should think, bft247 did a mistake and wrote in other topic:) He is not my boyfriend and he never took photos of my feet)))))) |
| Posted by: Clipper May 4 2011, 09:12 PM |
| Hello Polina ! bft247 is the author of the photos on : http://www.flickr.com/photos/bft247/ links that I posted some time ago,on page 3. Then there was some discussion about,and bft247 replied about (with some delay...),if you go on page 3 you will remember all... Do not worry about,all is clear... What do you think now about the soles of bft247 girls ? Do you will like to have similar ? |

| Hello all @ Polina: Sorry if i caused any confusion. I just googled on my alias and came across this topic. I thought i had to clear up a few things ;-) @ Clipper:
These are just a few phrases that were the main reason for my post here, Everyone has the right to his own opninion, i just thought i had to respond to at least state that my pictures are 100% genuine, all made by me and 100% female. I'm proud of my grilfriend that she takes the challenge to run barefoot in public . She runs about 6 km now without any problems. I will start a new topic about her feet. Regards BFT247 |

| Aha, now I see =) Sorry )) I don't think my feet will become as bft247's girlfriend feet, my skin is very thin and soft, you can imagine - my grandmother has baby's feet in spite of her age and dificit of pedicure )It is not so good, caz I have many corns |
| Posted by: Clipper May 5 2011, 06:02 PM | ||
I think that even bft247's girlfriend feet at the beginning were thin and soft. We can ask directly to her how long did she take to get her wonderful soles,maybe not very much... Would you be happy to grow up similar soles ? I hope yes... |

| Gents What's up? Our friend, the lovely Polina, has celebrated the first anniversary of her Barefoot Diary three days ago. And not a single word? Not a comment? Not a warm word? What's happening? She is always kind and lovely, sharing her barefoot adventures, her photos and thoughts, and no one says "well done", "thank you" or "congratulations" Well, all I can say is, Polina, thank you for your Diary, you bring joy to us. It is nice to read your posts, to see your pictures and to share a little bit of your barefoot life. May you keep delighting us in your Diary for many more years!
