When visiting another country, there are three things that every tourist must do: go sightseeing, eat, and shop. It doesn’t matter if one has allotted a modest budget for travelling expenses, but for me, I think it’s important to take home a little piece of any country I visit. My own home has become a wasteland of souvenirs. There are the Matryoshka dolls I got in Russia, the miniature clogs from Holland, the figurine of a sumo wrestler from Japan, and a miniature of the Buckingham Palace sitting side by side on my living room shelves. Maybe I’ve got a mild hoarding problem, or maybe I just like to shop. Whatever it is, I make sure that wherever I go, I only go to the places where I can afford to buy the merchandise.
