  9. I find it hard to find souvenirs that are distinctly from the places I visit, I try as much as possible to get a souvenir that can only be found or is special to the places I visit. We must also preserve the cultural heritage of those craftsmen when we buy souvenirs.

  10. Aside from good photographs from all our unforgettable experiences in different places we've been to buying these handicrafts made by the locals are really a big help for them and a souvenir that will last forever :)
