My Recent Commemorative Mugs

I love to collect overseas mugs. It reminds me of my trips to places all over the world..

I bought this mug from Dubai airport while transiting to KL.
Actually I have been to Dubai airport quite a number of times before but I didn't get anything at all.
This time, it was my sister who initiated it.
She bought quite a number of items while transiting to Athens.

This mug is to commemorate my trip to Athens.
I finally found it on my last day in Athens.

Stuff that I got from Dubai airport.
I thought that I could give away but my girl wants them all..
Now I have two gel pens left..

    Both the cups look so nice! Do you use them to drink or are they for display only?

    It is no surprise that your daughter likes them all because they are nice. Ah, to think that when I was young, I like these kind of stationery items too but now that I am old, I don't know what to do with them so would rather not keep any as I can only use one at a time only.

    Do let her enjoy these things while she still likes them. :)

    Did you use your husband's credit card to buy things in Dubai airport or you have the local currency of Dubai in cash?

      I love fridge magnet a lot. Fridge magnet as souvenir is better than key chain.

One unmistakable criterium is certainly manufacture according to the international quality standard (GMP/ISO).This is not obligatory!
