I really love traveling and would say that it is my top hobby. I have photo albums of all my trips and I like to look at those quite often. After I cam home from my trip around the world I wrote a book about my journey just for me because I don't want to publish it. I collect costume dolls from around the world and postcards from different destinations.

The one thing i first pack in my bag when am going for a holiday is my camera. i try to take as many pictures as possible for memories. then i also buy the things that are specialty of that place so that it reminds me something special about that place. i pen down notes also sometimes , like if i met someone and if i witnessed something strange. Whenever i am traveling , i send postcards to my friends and family back home.

I always remember my camera, many memory cards and batteries. I am glad that I have a digital camera now because in the past I had loads of films. I developed my photos on my trip around the world and set the negatives home. In the end I got hundreds of photos. It is lovely that you buy things that a special from the places that you visit like say chocolates or lace in Belgium. Writing notes of interesting things that you have witnessed is an excellent idea. Sending postcards to family and friends is enjoyable and a keep a few postcards for my own collection.

I make sure to buy souvenir items from the place I've visited. And I take pictures of their known land marks. Since I'm fond of pictures, I organized an album where I label it according to the places I've been to and then put all the pictures all together. It's like I'm making s story out of it because my album started from the beginning of the travel til the end. Nice Yah? ^^,

I keep my memories alive by putting all photos on a CD. I try to make all the photos on a move with background music. It helps me keep my travelling memories alive. © ronaldinu 2008

I always bring camera when we are on vacation. I like to keep good memories of those experiences especially if I'm with my family and friends. Also, there are times when my wife and I talk about our past vacation and we would just laugh about the silly things we have done there.

I always make sure that the digital camera is packed! I sometimes take my video camera too! I love to buy useful "treasures" of my vacation as well. When I get home I download my pictures and videos into my Video Phone with a Built in 7 inch Digital Photo Frame. When I'm not on the phone....it displays all my pictures for me!

Hello maximax. I usually keep my traveling memories alive by taking lots of photos of the place I travel to. I have whole bunch of photos taken during my limited journey when I go on business and some for holidays. But I have never traveled abroad as it is no cheap for me at all. To travel at home is good enough for me as there are so many scenic spots for me to visit and I have not been able to visit them all, but only a small part of the places. Happy traveling, dear friend.

hi maxi
i think that the snapshot and pictures are the only way to memorized your memories.
i think that you make a lot of stock from your travelling ?
i love to see my old pictures today , because it gives me much pleasure.
