Any of you buy souvenirs on a tourist trip.
Someone presents to relatives and friends, colleagues, colleagues. Someone for myself as a memory of the trip. Someone collects magnets, mounts them on the refrigerator. Souvenir products are usually similar from country to country.
But sometimes differences arise.
So, for example, while walking around Vienna, I was struck by mimic souvenir toys, crafts, such small figures. And with sledges, and with small armchairs, and tiny pianos, violins ...
For some reason, the tales of G.Kh. Andersen at that moment, as if the world had become small, toy and miniature.
In Vietnam, when people come for the first time, probably a lot of people buy Vietnamese hats. In 2011, when we were in Saigon, we also bought such a hat.
On this trip, we no longer needed a hat, we went to the gift shop for a magnet and see what they have interesting.
We ended up in a rather large gift shop. There are a lot of them, the products are the same everywhere, but there are pretty cute crafts and interesting magnets.
Here are such, for example, made of paper tape. That is, bound paper, ribbons, tiny, intertwined, creating a different pattern. Very original.
There are a lot of variations of such paintings - there are a lot of magnets. They seem airy.
Bookmarks. Also similar to manual work. I think it's still handmade.
And these are magnets, with such sets.
See the vastness here.
Sets of aroma candles and candlesticks for them.
Here is a chocolate with nuts we bought, white and green, very tasty.
Here is a variety of flashlights.
Original caskets and vases.
Figures, plates.
And here they are, Vietnamese hats, who wants this?
Or maybe someone needs wicker slates?
Of course, there was a choice of instant coffee and coffee beans.
Large and spacious store. The choice for every taste.
And, already at the checkout, they saw such beauty. For gifts.
So we walked around the store, tried not to buy anything except magnets, but could not refuse chocolate.
It always happens, look, and everything is so interesting, you want to buy everything. And you bring home - and then everything lies in the nightstand and do not use. Here are just magnets on the refrigerator and hang. Therefore, we usually buy only magnets and sweets.
That showed you the beauty. Enjoy your health.
