50 Souvenir Ideas to Make Your Memories Last

Take memories and leave only footprints.

I want to make memories all over the world, and if you're like me, you might want something unique to bring home with us to help us remember further.

The best way to do this is by collecting souvenirs from every special place you visit. Rather than purchase expensive gift store merchandise, we've compiled a list of souvenirs girls have collected from countries far and wide that might spark interest in an item you can enjoy collecting on your next journey.
