| Our World Map where we have pins on places we have been since we started collecting shells (a gift from Phil and Dottie Schneider, USA) |

I
don't know about
most people, but
it is almost impossible
for us to travel
to an exotic place
and come back without
carrying anything
to decorate our
office or our home.
We have been in
those situations
where we had to
board an airplane
and had to argue
with crew to allow
us to carry some
large and heavy
(and fragile...)
items, such paintings,
wooden masks, etc.
Each item on the
walls of our office
brings back good
memories and that
fish skull indeed
look good on my
desk!
Most of the idea
of gathering
these treasures
came from an
old Marist priest
that Jose met
when he was a
kid. He always
visited this
priest's office
and returned
lured with stories
and objects from
far Countries.
Jose is responsible
for most of the
decoration we
have in our office
since he would
bring a brick
from the pyramids
if the autorities
allowed him!
Of course I do
appreciate and
also brings lots
of weird stuff
I found on the
beaches or diving.
Sometimes
these things
can take me back
in time and make
me appreciate
more our adventurous
life....
