Will people really pay out hundreds of dollars to sleep next to someone?
This week’s post brings to you yet another in the long line of wacky and weird Japanese theme cafes. This one, as opposed to the usual costumes and atmosphere that one might normally expect, offers customers a chance to sleep with someone that they don’t know. No, it’s not a house of illicit activity. In fact, there’s no sex involved whatsoever. What customers pay for is the privilege of lying down and cuddling with someone. Nicknamed the “cuddle café”, the proper name is Soine-ya. It’s located in Akihabara and is the first café of its kind to open.
