souvenirs
Souvenir (French) is an object a person acquires for the memory associated with it. The term brings to mind the mass-produced crap that is the main commodity of tourist-trap gift shops. But, a souvenir can be any object, memento, or keepsake that can be collected and transported home by the traveler. The thing itself has no real significance other than the psychological connection with the object as a symbol of past experience. Without the owner's input, the object's meaning may be invisible, or cannot be articulated. These are my Souvenirs:
