Fifteen years ago, I took a summer vacation in Italy. After climbing up a hill, I stopped to catch my breath, enjoy the beautiful view (风景), and then take the best photo.

Unluckily, just as I took out my camera, a woman came from behind, and planted herself right in front of me. Like me, this woman was here to stop and enjoy the view.

Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, I grew upset. I could have asked her to move, but something stopped me from doing so. She seemed to enjoy herself.

Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take the photo anyway. And now when I look at it, I think she made the photo interesting. The view, beautiful on its own, comes to life because this woman is in it.

Ortansa Pascariu is a 66-year-old woman from Romania. She made a very unusual vest (背心) with her own hair! She said that collecting fallen hair is a tradition in her hometown. It’s said that women should never throw away their hair if they want to keep their beauty and good luck.

She said, “I started collecting my hair when I was 40 and by the age of 60 I got one kilo. That was enough for a vest.”

Ortansa explained that she only saved the hair that had fallen out as she combed (梳) it. And she completed the vest in only one week. She didn’t wear it. After keeping it for about five years she gave it away to the local museum.
