The one memorable thing
I like traveling and always try to find something interesting from every country for memory. I don't collect the same things every time for examle statuettes, magnets or plates. I can buy any things, because for me important the mood and atmosphere which bring this thing.
For example, when I was in Holland I bought second-hand picture, which I very liked.
In that day Holland celebrated a Queen's Day. Dutch have a tradition to sell old things in this day and organize markets on bunds of Amsterdam's chanels. It was so interesting experience for me - numerous people stay near from their homes and present their personal things - books, clothes, toys, kitchen features and even home-made sweets. I went through them and joy - they wore orange accessories (this is Queen's colour), they laugh and song songs, children played on musical instruments.
For me it was memorable day so I decided to buy something for memory. And I saw the small cute picture where was painted only one pink beautiful flower on aquamarine background. One positive young lady sold it to me and when I return at home I hung picture in my room. Now this small painting remember me that wonderful day and positive Dutch people.

Spending every vacation in the same place? No, thanks!
My friend and I sometimes debate where better to organize a new trip — in a place where you have already been or choose new one?
My friend considers, that if you had a good time on your previous holidays in some place why need to looking for something new?
For example, she had spent her vacations in Thailand 5 times at a stretch (or in sequence?), because she likes this country thanks for weather, nature, sea, great choise of fruit and seafood and, of course, wonderful people. However she mentioned after her second travel that it was not so interesting like in the first time, but she went there three times again.
I recommended to her go to other countries of this part of the globe — Vietnam, Malasia or Indonesia. I said to her that she could find out new informaion about other cultures, people, see new interesting places and there are beautiful seas, plenty fruit and seafood too.
And I know that many people prefer their tested places and go the every year.
I have favorite countries too, for example, I fall in love with Holland, I had amazing holidays in Israil, United Arab Emirates, Thailand and others.
However I choose new country every time because I think our world is so interesting and I want to spend my time and money for new experiences.
On my next trips I would like to go to Mexico, Australia, India and I must see lavanda fields in provance!
What is your favourite place in the world?
What place can you recommend for must see? Why?

Does music provoke an association with somebody or something for you?
Sometimes when I listening to any song, I suddenly remember the certain person or the occasion. I think, there are some reasons for that.
Firstly, I can associate a music composition with a person because I have heard it when I met with him for the first time or this individual sang a composition constantly.
Secondly, some song can associate for me with rememberable happening. And not always these memories are good.
I am sure that I am not along in these cases :)
What about you? Do you have the same experience?
