The humble abode of the hopeless romantic.

Why does everyone love the city of Paris so much? Is it because of the Eiffel Tower? The Arch of Triumph? The Notredame Cathedral?

Maybe it's not the architecture or the landmarks but perhaps the environment as a whole. The people, the embedded culture, the language, the history and all the abstract things that you cannot see, instead feel.

If there is one city in Europe that people visit for a romantic get away, you can count on Paris being up there with the best of them.

It's a shame the infamous pad-lock bridge has now been torn down. What remains is but a memorial of once a formidable sight of hundreds of thousands of locked up pledges of love. A relic and a token of real people's love, represented by a simple lock.
