Loneliness is the biggest cost of our society. And it is tricky to solve loneliness, because mere dopamine-incentives you don’t get the results you are after. A possible solution in the fight against loneliness is making use of professional huggers. Tommy tells about his considerations taking on this job and specializing as a professional hugger, what human contact can bring us and how we keep connecting with each other in the future.
Tommy is created together with actor Bas van Rijnsoever.
