Joining #PTTravel chat from Maryland to talk with @kate_frankie about souvenirs and overseas markets and bazaars.
Joining with a very slow internet as the video I am uploading for my latest blog post is taking forever! Janina from #Sussex #pttravel
RT @Txiki_Tales: Alas, I’m still at the cricket, but at least I have a souvenir #PTTravel https://t.co/eVYhSPZhBi

I've been to support the #GreatNorthRun today and my brother in law, aunt and other family/ friends who were running. Bursting with pride!

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie Great day for it! (I think, at least it's been fab down here!) #pttravel
Joining from home in Dublin where we just got back from a free tour of a Mexican Tall Ship that is visiting. #pttravel https://t.co/mCixrPWWgR
A1 Really, really crap ones! Those from the UK I defy you not to have a glass vessel with Alum Bay sand in it from the Isle of Wight! #pttravel
A1 #PTTravel Usually what ever I could get for less than $1. I remember coins that said where they were from were my favorite thing to buy.
A1 #PTTravel Well, the sea shells and naff 'Presents from ... ' are long gone. Here's a pic of my very first souvenir from abroad; bought Bombay Airport 1961, Still have them & wear occasionally.
A1. Stuffed animals! I remember that I liked the Kitchen Cabaret as a kid at EPCOT Center in Disney World and had to get the cute stuffed broccoli as a souvenir. #pttravel https://t.co/5eQs8HZ22L

A1: For me, it used to be mostly things we'd found along the way rather than bought from a shop - we went to lots of pebble beaches, so I have a good collection of rocks and shells!

replying to @SidewalkSafari @SidewalkSafari Oh we had a 'figment' the dragon from epcot.....but I was 18.......does that count as being a kid? #pttravel

replying to @matthew_ftravel @matthew_ftravel #pttravel Still do that ... my garden fountain contains a pebble from just about every beach within 100 miles!
A1 If only being a kid didn't seem like a lifetime ago. There must have been souvenir plates and such gathered from trips and now hidden somewhere in boxes much like time capsules. #PTTravel
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A1) From what I remember it was pebbles, shells or a postcard #PTTravel
replying to @kate_frankie
@kate_frankie Hey! I used to have a postcard collection, I'd buy my own whilst on holiday and family/friends would send me some too.
I found the shoe box in the attic with them in recently - what a throwback! #PTTravel
replying to @aok_NW @aok_NW I used to like that kind of thing. You can still go to places that have a 'make your own coin' machine and I see kids getting them #PTTravel

A1 Always fridge magnets! I will venture downstairs to show you how many by now.
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A1) Ohhh fridge magnets always hahaha and still do! Also coins, always thought its fascinating having coins from everywhere😄 #pttravel
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie Arriving a lil late to the chat...on train back home to Essex 😊 #pttravel
replying to @Gotmybackpack @Gotmybackpack @kate_frankie I love this! I still send postcards. I think it adds to the romance of travel. #pttravel
replying to @Gotmybackpack @Gotmybackpack @kate_frankie #pttravel My mother used to collect each and every postcard that came to her. In later life, she suffered from Alzheimers's, but still used to love paging through her albums.
replying to @DawnCorleone @DawnCorleone @Gotmybackpack @kate_frankie We have a little postcard group with @sl2016_sl @monstervoyage and @KaraDiDomizio it's fab :) #PTTravel
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A2) they’ve gone from shells to shot glasses 😂 #PTTravel
A2 #PTTravel i used to buy coffee mugs until I found it was causing too much clutter. Today I buy refrigerator magnets & have found I’m getting a few too many of those.

replying to @heywhatsupcourt @heywhatsupcourt @kate_frankie #pttravel We both love those! I think our utility room has its own magnetic field!
A2 not really 🤣🤣🤣🤣 we have a shelf of tat and don't get something from everywhere but here's a selection...big souvenirs are hard as we do hand luggage only 😁 #pttravel
#PTTravel
Well, this is how observant I am and how often I'm here at home.
Fridge has had no magnets on it since the beginning of the week while decorating happened
replying to @StromfieldAdvs @StromfieldAdvs @Gotmybackpack @kate_frankie @sl2016_sl @monstervoyage @KaraDiDomizio That’s brilliant! #pttravel
A2 As an adult, trip souvenirs more often are digital photos. They are handier and readily shared. #PTTravel
A2 #PTTravel Plates! This is just some of our collection (taken off the wall for cleaning)
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie I like bringing back books. Sometimes picture or art books, sometimes cookbooks. It's always fun being able to recreate or relive the travel experience back home. #pttravel
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A2 I'm always on the hunt for a local #rum #pttravel #adult #souvenirs
A2. I like bringing things back that you can consume. Makes for a good reminder of the trip and doesn't take up space permanently. #pttravel https://t.co/dJGyoeYrIR
