FRIDGE MAGNET

“Fridge magnet. I have a few hundred of them from my travels that I keep on metal sheets hanging in my office behind me.
They become a conversation piece during conference calls and are a good icebreaker when I meet new people on a conference call. They’ll ask what they are, I’ll explain they are magnets from my travels, and then I’ll ask them where they are from. If I have a magnet from that area, I’ll pull it off the wall and show it to them. It’s silly but an excellent way to start a conversation.”

“I make scrapbooks, so I’ll save tickets, maps, coins, etc., and make a book for the trip (especially if it is longer). I also like to get little pins from everywhere I visit and put them on my corkboard at home.”
PRACTICAL SOUVENIRS

“I try to buy practical souvenirs that I can use like a tile coasters/pot rest from Portugal, a garnet ring from Prague, a dress by a local designer in Berlin, a cork purse from Portugal, a cow bracelet from Cambodia, a mandala I framed from Nepal, a cookbook that came as part of a cooking lesson in Thailand, a pair of shoes in London, etc. I don’t have space to display many things, so this works better for me.”

“I buy artwork (usually watercolor) of the city from a local artist. They roll it up and place it in a tube. I have it framed when I get home. Also, try to find a small piece of jewelry.”

“Transit card. In some places, it’s hard as they use contactless or don’t issue transfers, but most still sell city-specific transit cards, and in many places, you’ll be buying one anyway to use the local transit system. They fit nicely in a baseball card frame that can also be hung on the wall.”
