Why the best souvenirs are stories

Why the best souvenirs are stories

For someone who doesn’t consider herself much of a shopper when I travel, I’ve managed to bring back a lot of stuff for our house. But this kind of ‘stuff’ comes with something much more valuable than a great exchange rate at some foreign department store – these objects comes with stories, and because of that, they have become my personal travel artefacts.

One of the best backhanded compliments I ever received while travelling was when I was wandering around Córdoba, Spain, and found myself in a local artists’ enclave where a handful of painters, sculptors and artisans worked and sold their art.

I spotted this beautifully stylized bust of a flamenco dancer in one of the studios, and went inside to admire the piece closer.
