We love to travel and are blessed that we can travel regularly. We enjoy exploring new places and seeing new things. Over the decades I started collecting fun things from the places that we’ve visited. I personally collect thimbles and refrigerator magnets but there’s a host of other things you can collect too!

You can collect all kinds of fun things to remind you of your travels. Some items are inexpensive and take up very little space, while other’s can be pricey and require a storage system. You can display your collection or keep it tucked away in a treasure box. That’s entirely up to you!
I like to collect small things like magnets, but I do take a lot of photos.
All I have from my travels are pictures. Just had a memory picture pop up last week about our trip to Arizona 6 years ago. Have you ever saw the old Lucille Ball Long Trail movie? She collected rocks
I have a collection of animal figurines that I have collected from various places over the years. Each one has a memory of the vacation.
I am a huge magnet collector. They are inexpensive & small, usually small, lol. Helps with the memories.
