About

We meet at Münsterplatz where we write the words "FREE HUGS" on carton boards. After we finish them, we go on the street or if it is too hot, in the Mall an hold the "FREE HUGS" signs up in the air. After a short time strangers who feel that they need a hug right now will get out of your comfort zone, because you will not hug people that are familar to you, but total strangers. I promise you, it will be a lot of fun! Come It is not only a great experince for them, it is also a even greater experice for yourself because you do not get only one hug, but a lot :-) Free hugs is a real life controversial story of Juan Mann, a man whose sole mission was to reach out and hug a stranger to brighten up their lives. In this age of social disconnectivity and lack of human contact, the effects of the Free Hugs campaign became phenomenal. And do not worry if you have concerns of if you are afraid. We can talk about it. Also we first meet in our group of huggers and warm up, get to know each other and get comfortable for the action.
