Free Hugs - Juan Mann

Free Hugs

This sign made me wonder: what society we live in when people advertise they give free hugs away. And yes, there were plenty of takers. Passers by of different ages came up to this man and embraced Juan Mann. I’m not sure who benefited more from it but it left me with a mixed feeling. On one hand it is a very cordial act and on another it would indicate that there are a lot of lonely people out there not getting moral and emotional support from their close ones.

Amanda - privacy in the CBD

Amanda

This is Amanda. Do I know her? No, we’ve never met. And yet I know her name and I know where she works all from a little tag she so proudly parades around the Sydney CBD. Thousands of city workers do exactly the same every day.
