One of my favorite things about traveling is obviously the souvenirs!! I’ll never forget the hideous green nylon jacket with PARIS embroidered on the back that I brought home from my first trip to France for my 10th bday. Man was that thing hideous but I loved it! This time I came home with piles of scarves and textiles (Mom, Sarah can you guess which ones are for you?!), an armful of bracelets, some RAD cambodia t-shirts and tanks (now I wish N + I brought home more than our combined 10), and some insane skin bags + wallets that perfectly match both pairs of my Rickard Guy shoes! My favorite take homes include a huge oversized off white hand knit silk scarf (worn in the photos below) that looks like something an incredible 70 year old lady would wear (this is my criteria for buying lovely things..), a stunning red Kain Ulos that was all hand done – the photos show the front and the back where you can see how it was painstakingly embroidered – and the aforementioned skin pieces. I’m also loving the paper beads done by AIDS patients and the friendship bracelets done by a man who has lost most of his limbs due to a land mine. They are super special. Enjoy!
