After work today I popped by downtown Weimar in order to do some quick shopping for some needed supplies: razors, laundry detergent, dish soap, and something I cannot recall right now.
Out along Schillerstraße was this group of three young men giving away hugs—I was too shy to do it by myself and they weren’t being aggressive enough in giving the free hugs away—I didn’t see anybody take advantage of their offer.
Meanwhile the weather in Weimar continues to be perfect. I couldn’t imagine a better day, to be honest—weather is comfortable—not too hot, not too cold, and the streets are filled with people.
I hope it continues…
That’s one phenomenon I didn’t expect to ever see in Germany 😉
oh, what a pity i missed the free hugs action. they do it in germnay now, too.

That tall drink of water looking directly at the camera could certainly get something other than a hug free from me.
Awww man… How could you SEE them there and not go give them a hug?
Bummer. I would have liked a free hug. Can you give virtual hugs? 🙂
I cannot believe you did not take them up on some free love! 🙂
I am enjoying the weather reports with a bit of German schadenfreude these days: Sunny in the north, rainy down south!
they don’t give out free hugs here.
