After years of working 70 hours a week at jobs that paid the bills but brought no joy, I felt like the proverbial "hole in the donut" - solid on the outside, but empty on the inside. In early 2007, searching for meaning in my life, I set out to pursue my true passions of travel, writing, and photography. My stories feature the destinations I visit and the people I meet, with an emphasis on cultural travel and traveling in a manner that benefits and deeply interacts with locals.

I agree with Anita. I prefer love locks on bridges, not sculptures. I have a fun photo from Napa Valley by the Wine Train Depot with tons of love locks.
I am a huge fan of the love locks…have a lock of my own to lock onto a bridge someday soon….but I am not sure if I agree with locking them on a statue! I missed that while in Paris in October. Took tonnes of photos of the bridge locks. I am starting to see the locks everywhere on almost any surface…but I think I prefer them to be congregated together on a bridge or a love lock tree that has been erected expressly for that purpose, not where they may damage a sculpture or work of art. I am at a cross roads on this one.

How interesting Nancy! I’ve never heard of love locks outside of Europe.

Apparently, Anita, thee city removes them every now and then, so the ones on the statue may very well disappear.
