martin zuckermann - Hello there! Just wanna say how much I enjoyed seeing the "hug squad", how original is that?!!, there should be one of those at every downtown at every city. Yes, hugs are very special, indeed they are. Thank you for sharing Melissa. marTin
MattDJ - Hmmm...as much as I love hugs, I don't know if I would be so brave in NYC. Free high fives would do. ;-)
Carolyn Egerszegi - I love it! Typical Vancouver to find a Hug Squad still hugging it out despite the rain.
Laura - Oh my gosh! My friends and I did that when I lived in Santa Barbara. It was the best experience! Good to see it still happens.
YGuerrero - You made me smile :) :)
Kristin Partin - hi hi! new follower....blog hopped from jamie delaine:) love your site, photos and spirit!
Tristan - That is one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time. And that sweet lady just beams with kindness. Thanks for sharing.
Giovanna - Melissa....while in Las Vegas for WPPI this year there was a team of HUGGERS in front of Paris. We all loved the hugs they gave:)
Abbie - That is so sweet!!
Taryn Bills - The world would be a better place if we all hugged more! What a great post!!!
j. - It was actually started by an Australian man in Pitt Street Mall, Sydney. His "name" is Juan Man. He is also about to retire and is looking for his successor at the moment.
Melissa Jill :) - Hey Amy-- I think I have seen that awhile ago. I knew that the movement started over in Europe somewhere but it was just cool to run into it randomly in Vancouver. Very cool.
