Lachlan, the $1 kisser

TODAY: audio and article

Yes, it was Tamami’s last day, but we ended the week on a positive – free hugs and $1 kisses. Not to mention Jason and his girlfriend celebrated their 500 day anniversary. Congratulations!

It began with us discussing how to show emotion in your country.

In Korea and Japan we all agreed that people are very reluctant to hug or embrace. Some of us don’t even like to hold hands with our boyfriend/husband or girlfriend/wife.

So then, would you hug this guy?

and would you kiss Lachlan Christie in the picture at the top?

Is what he’s doing a bit weird? Why is it okay to hug a stranger but not kiss a stranger?
