Lol yep!
I used to collect stickers when I was younger, I guess I copied my classmates lol
In the 80ies stickers were what emojis are today.
In 80s my mom was a teen lmao
I didn’t even exist back then
Time goes by fast.
Yeah
Closed due to inactivity
I think there might still be life in this thread, so I wanna revive it. Did I mainly just want to do so cause my keychain collection has been expanded massively since this fist post, yes!
If anyone is interested in individual pictures of each of the keychains and their stories, let me know! I would love to do that, but only if someone is genuinely interested in it
I collect kpop albums!
I currently have 25 and will definitely buy more soon
Ooooh, nice! Of any specific band(s) or just kpop in general?
I am very much a multistan so it’s a long list but I mainly collect ENHYPEN, Tomorrow X Together, Stray Kids, Kep1er, LE SSERAFIM and IVE albums. Those are the groups where I’ll buy an album as soon as it comes out (and sometimes multiple versions) but on the more casual side, I also have a Blackpink album + Jisoo’s solo album, AleXa’s most recent album and a (G)I-DLE album
Oooh, sounds like a rad collection!
It’s almost outgrown the shelf I keep it on
Is that going to stop me from buying more?
Absolutely not
I was bored so decided to do it either way
UK 2022
Quite stereotypical London keychain, love that the bus is basically a fidget toy as the wheels actually move
Nessieee, it’s just adorable
A train, as I did this trip by train fully and loved the train museum I visited as well!
South America 2022
Bought in Manizales, Colombia.
I had seen this one various times during my trip, in Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, ended up buying in Ecuador as it was too cute
Nasca lines, bought it in a shop in Nasca. They had different lines, but I liked the spider.
Madrid? That’s not South America you might think, you’re right. But I spent a lovely few days in Madrid with my mom before heading to Bogotá
Turkey to Netherlands by train 2019
It was so interesting to me to see the Turkish flag literally everywhere in Turkey, it’s all over the place. That’s partly what made me pick this one.
This was interesting to me, with the half mirror text idea. It fitted Istanbul well in my opinion…
Sofia, Bulgaria, was the first step after Turkey. Couldn’t find much, so a basic one it was…
Chose this one for Budapest as that’s the building from where I saw an amazing sunset.
I loved Belgrade, what more can I say
Went to the zoo in Berlin, that’s where I got that one.
Ireland 2022
I have strong memories of a souvenir I got during my first trip to Ireland when I was 10, and this had the same feeling.
Iceland 2020
Keychains were so expensive in Iceland, couldn’t find anything below 15 dollars except this one, so didn’t have much choice
Thailand 2018
This place was my highlight, in the middle of the Thai forest. It was an amazing experience
Loved the colours
Vietnam 2019
Loved this building in person
Those hats are everywhere in Vietnam, so I had to get one in keychain form
Copenhagen & Stockholm 2022
Had forgotten to get one in Stockholm, so when I saw this for a reasonable price at the airport I was like, why not?
These are some iconic buildings, love the colours.
Other
Bought it on the first foreign trip with friends last summer
It’s a memory of a specific friend
When I had a fun day with some friends at the Dolfinarium (a sea animal zoo here in the Netherlands), I bought it there
Bought when I met up with @LHT for the 2nd time at the Efteling, one of the most famous amusement parks in the Netherlands
That’s a massive mood. I guess you could also argue that I collect books, cause I have exactly that with books
oooh i love that
oof felt lol
ooooh i love that!
also i collect rubik’s puzzles
they’re kinda expensive so my collection is pretty small still, but i’m always looking for new additions to it ^^
Finally got around to photographing my collection
Here are all the albums I currently have:
and my photo cards by artist
