This Girl Kissed A Beautiful Stranger On The Eiffel Tower And Now She’s Using Twitter To Try To Find Him
There’s something so romantic about traveling. Maybe it’s the idea that no one knows who you are and the thrill that you might not see anyone you meet again, but it makes you do crazy things — just ask Twitter user Juliana Corrales.
Juliana lived the dream this past week when she traveled to Paris with some friends. While she was on the Eiffel Tower, she ended up kissing a stranger — and in the heat of the moment, she forgot to ask for his number.

Here’s a bit of the back story where Juliana explains exactly why she kissed the guy:
Okay so here’s the backstory. I went on a school trip to Paris for 12 days with my 3 best friends, ever since my amazing parents surprised me with the news, I made a pact with myself that I would kiss someone on the Eiffel Tower.

So it was the final day of the trip, the 6th of January, and we were on the top of the Eiffel Tower, and I was looking for someone to kiss. Unfortunately there wasn’t many options because there was no one my age who didn’t come with their girlfriend.

But luckily my friend @danielleecallaw saw Gavin and like total spazzes we followed him around the top level and she tapped on his shoulder and then backed away to let me speak. Somehow I managed to make concise sentences and I asked him if he wouldn’t mind kissing me

I explained to him about my pact , and to my dismay he actually agreed to kiss me😂

(Okay, but seriously, that works? Taking notes.)
So we kiss and it was pretty cool and my friends were all cheering and we were all laughing, and then his mom yells “ that’s my son, kiss again so I can get a picture” and of course I happily oblige because he is GORGEOUS and then we kissed again.

In the heat of the moment I completely forgot to get his number, which is why I took it to Twitter, making hoping maybe we could find him?? But I never expected all of this hahha😂😂 so thank u so much to everyone who is invested and everyone who has been kind enough to help me😊

The Internet immediately fell in love with Juliana’s story, either because they wanted the best for her or because, quite frankly, they wanted to be her.

And because the Internet is full of amateur (who should be professional) sleuths, it found someone found the guy’s contact information real fast (shoutout to his old next door neighbor).

… But unfortunately, the search may have shown that he’s not as single as we may hope.

Luckily, Juliana took the news with grace and asked people not to harass him online.
So I saw that u guys found Gavin hahah and whether he has a girlfriend or not, I would just like to thank everyone for finding him and being so supportive. If you guys wouldn’t mind please to not bother him or his mom, I would hate to disrupt their lives too much

But that doesn’t mean we can’t hope, right?

Here’s to hoping Gavin hears about Juliana and reaches out to her, because I feel like this could have a fairytale ending — you know, as long as someone makes the first move. Please keep us updated, Juliana!
