Yes, I am a tree hugger .. literally 
..
When I hug trees, I feel them hugging me back ..
.. My husband reckons I am crazy, he calls me a "Dingbat treehugger"..
Every place we go to, I make sure I get to take photos hugging trees. I am blessed to have a small retreat in my homeland where I go and hug as many trees as I want to 
.. That photo of me hugging the coconut tree was taken in 2012 
..
You have to be careful when you hug trees because there could be a snake or big lizard up on the top and fall on you .. LOL! 
..
Do you hug trees? ..

You looks cute in that photo hugging a coconut tree. But be careful, nuts can fall from the tree and it would cause much harm. You have a nice way of "talking" with the trees.

Yes it's very important that we protect our trees .. I'm glad there are groups of people who devote their times protecting trees ..

Awesome picture. I admire trees but I can't say that I hug them. Ohe my I would be so scared of a snake or lizard falling on me. I would die right on the stop. You are very brave.

I grew up in my home province where we experienced tidal waves or tsunami.. some people survived because they clung on to trees... We don't have to wait for tsunamis to hug trees... Trees are very important but most of us don't really value them..

@epiffanie You are so right on that. People don't realize just how important trees are to us for survival.

I don't hug trees but I love and admire them. I am always remarking on beautiful trees that I see.
