Transcript

I want to fill my house with beautiful pieces from around the world. I just want to travel the world and put unique things in my house. So let me show you my current collection. A lot of people are in those comments saying I've been traveling wrong. I've just been getting mementos, keychains, and shot glasses, etc. And I just want to let you guys know, it started with shot glasses. Like, I studied abroad in Madrid and I was going around Europe, I went to Morocco and all these things, and I was getting shot glasses in every country that I visited because I was 20 years old, I was drinking a lot in college. So that's what made sense to me then. I didn't even have a home to put this beautiful moka pot or that flower pot that you're seeing today in my home. And but now those shot glasses, they're still memories, they're with my parents in their house. So I'll say that to say, just because you've been to say 15 countries and you didn't start collecting things for your house doesn't mean you can't start on your 16th country or whatever number you're gonna be on. It takes time to develop yourself as a traveler and even your style in your home, etc. So don't count yourself out and don't look at me and what I have collected and like compare yourself. Just think about it the next time you go somewhere and one day you'll have a collection of your own. Bye.
