A woman has revealed how she rakes in over £1,500 every month from cuddling strangers. Kristiina Link, 30, has explained how she is a certified 'cuddle therapist', and offers services such as handholding, hair stroking, and embracing.
Kristiina's affectionate services can last up to three hours but, understandably, they don't come cheap - each session can cost up to £170!
The cuddle therapist completed a 'snuggle' training course after previously breaking up with a partner, and while she originally attended the course in an attempt to cure her own loneliness, she soon realised there was a gap in the market for her new skill.
Explaining how she came to find her current profession, Kristiina, from East London, told Metro: "In 2019, I was missing the cuddling and affectionate side of a relationship after becoming single. "I thought that there should be a service where people help each other and cuddle – It’s a bit like Uber for cuddles."
