On difficult days, be extra gentle with yourself. Get the rest you need. Reflect on what your mind, body and soul require to renew. If you need be alone for a while to recharge, that’s okay. Go at your own pace always.

The Eiffel Tower can be 15 cm taller during the summer. When a substance is heated up, its particles move more and it expands. This means that in hotter temperatures, the iron structure of the Eiffel Tower expands, causing it to grow slightly in height.
