Day 17- Shopping & a thought
Today I actually finally went shopping, which I planned on doing the first week, but got too busy to do. I’ve learned that if I buy souvenirs from the places I travel to (like a piece of the Berlin Wall, or a T-shirt that says Checkpoint Charlie), I end up with lots of clutter that just gets donated in a few years. But if I buy clothes that I actually enjoy wearing, even if I could get very similar ones online or back home, I gain much more enjoyment from the object I attach memories of a place to. So when I wear the clothes I bought today, I’ll think of Berlin and the fun stuff I’ve done while I was here!
