An adventure through memories
Sorry to hear that your leg hasn't improved as much as you'd hoped Sylvia, hopefully the time and care you are taking will see you through. I love this idea for a blog post very much! I'm so impressed that you have been brave enough to bring back such fragile and delicate items from your travels. I'd love to buy local pottery when we travel, but have heard so many unlucky stories that I always get cold feet at the point of sale... although a few sets of teapots and small teacups have made it back successfully. We also bought a couple of Moroccan mint tea glasses as you did, and they work well with the cay glasses we brought back from Turkey. Our souvenirs are spread out through most of the house - in the lounge, kitchen, hallway and dressing room - so while a similar bog to yours may not be possible, I'm now tempted to write one about the various scarves and jewellery I religiously buy on every trip ;) Thanks for a glimpse into your travels via your travel mementos, and I also loved the glimpse into your beautiful home :)

Vivid memories
I really enjoyed this entry. I was especially taken with the idea of travel years wasted. So many lost opportunities for us travelers. It has definitely challenged us to make the most of our truly strange and surreal circumstances. I am happy that you found such a great outlet for your creativity, Thanks for sharing your stories.
