My souvenirs from travel.

I love visiting different countries and since I was 18 years old I have been collecting costume dolls. I have two shelves with them on it is glass case bookcase. The best one it made out of wood and she came from Romania. On my last trip I got several different dolls from a craft place in Chile. I collect coins, low value back notes and postcards got in the destinations that I have been to. In the Cook Islands I got a 3 dollar note and a triangular coin. Wow! I also collect fridge magnets which I put on my fridge door. I have collected a shelf of miniature houses. One is Swiss cottage that plays music and the nicest is a beach house from Samoa. I liked hearing about your souvenirs and it was a shame you lost your best one. Sadly on my way home from Colombia I lost a dolphin bracelet.

i love collecting souvenirs especially when gone to other places. when used to go to beaches, i collected sea shells and any cute stuff in the seashore. and when i am eating at any restaurants or fastfoods, i used to collect any stuff and hide it. i even bought souvenir items in a shop and gave it to my friends as i headed home. just love to keep what i can keep to remind me of the place i visited. so thanks for this

Oh, I love buying souvenirs to remind me of trips. I love memories, and I get attached to items really easily. I usually buy stuff that reminds me of the place, like art items... like little jugs and ornaments with local folk designs, evil eye bracelet from Greece, "magic lamp" from Egypt...

Whenever we travel, my favorite souvenir are key chains. At first I think it's because they're convenient and easy to carry while traveling. But lately, when I look back to the stuff I bought, it's like looking back in time on how keychains evolved from this style and design to something more complicated or sturdier and even more polished. And since all of us have keys, I am sure that my friends will appreciate an extra key chain.

Thats neat.... i have several things from my trips to the united states. I have bears. One from every state there.

I started collecting magnets for refrigirator on my recent travel. I bought about five magnets to remind me of the place I've been to. I know how it feels when you lost something that was given by a special person. You can't avoid thinking that maybe it is a sign that you're not meant to be. But don't worry, the koala bear may be lost, but not the feeling in your heart. Maybe you will have a chance next time. By the way, you really have a nice collection but I think collecting koala bears is difficult as not all countries have them as souvenirs.

hi Imamom, I love having souvenirs every time I traveled into different places well just in our country I bought something that reminds me of the place I've been, some of my friends who travel abroad or out of town always give me a souvenir from their travel. Welcome to mylot keep on posting
