A Professional Cuddler
The first cuddling service has opened in Portland, Oregon. No, it's not an escort agency. It really offers what it says: cuddling.
For $60 per hour Samantha Hess offers hair strokes, hand-holding, a lot of different variations on the theme in her shop, called Cuddle Up To Me.
The idea was so successful that she started to receive as much as 10,000 emails a day.
She got the idea in one of those moment in life when one could benefit of some solidarity, even better if expressed in a physical dimension. "I was at a place where I thought paying someone to hug me and not have ulterior motives sounded like a great idea," she added. "I decided why can't this be a thing that we can easily and safely reach for?"
To ensure the safety of both cuddler and cuddlee the sessions are recorded.
The shop runs from Monday to Saturday. Talking is optional.
