Name: Eiffel
Age: 2 years old
Nationality: French
This teddy bear was bought during a familiy trip in Paris, hence the reason he's French. He used to live in the Eiffel Tower and now he lives in Broadstairs, Kent with me and the other Fluff-ers.
As opposed to London, this toy represents the idea of exploring new place with my parents instead of being on my own. I find it interesting that I tend to associate objects with certain places I've been to. The need to have an actual object related to Paris in this case serves as a constant reminder of the days spent there, the places visited and last but not least, the memories created. It's intriguing how being with people one loves in certain places affects the manner in which the location is perceived.
