Eiffel Tower, Paris

What she was doing, was not anything new. Somewhere, somehow, we have probably all met someone that offered a "Free hug" to strangers. But what was interesting was what happened around her. At the Eiffel Tower, armed military soldiers are stationed, patrolling the area alongside the many peddlers of minature Eiffel Tower keychains. For a brief moment, both the soldiers and the peddlers surrounded the girl for no apparent reason. Nothing changed. And just as suddenly, both groups dispersed and everything was left in its ordered, touristic calm.
