    5 Tips for Choosing Great Souvenirs with Rolf Potts

    Souvenirs are more than objects. They’re how we jog our memories to reflect on the experiences we’ve had exploring the world. They are also thoughtful gestures that let people back home know they are important.That’s why selecting souvenirs can be considered an art form. Sometimes, it’s as simple as buying a kitschy shot glass or tea towel. Other times, the objects we choose might hold deeper significance. Knowing how to select the best keepsakes at the right moment for the intended recipient takes experience.   Today, Angie Orth is back with travel writer Rolf Potts. His book, Souvenir (Object Lessons), is a deep dive into the cultural history and significance of souvenirs. You’ll hear how to weigh emotional authenticity over physical authenticity when it comes to selecting souvenirs, and how to budget for space and finances when deciding what you want to take home. You’ll also learn how to choose locally made crafts and why that’s important to tourist economies. What You’ll Learn:* (0:45) Being instinctive about the items you choose* (2:41) Consideration for authenticity* (3:43) Opting for locally-produced gifts* (4:43) Budgeting for souvenirs* (7:30) Thinking outside of the gift boxConnect with:https://rolfpotts.com (https://rolfpotts.com)https://www.instagram.com/rolfpotts/ (https://www.instagram.com/rolfpotts/)https://x.com/rolfpotts (https://x.com/rolfpotts)https://www.facebook.com/rolf.potts (https://www.facebook.com/rolf.potts)Connect with AAA:Book travel: https://aaa-text.co/travelingwithaaa  (https://aaa-text.co/travelingwithaaa)https://clubadventures.com/ (https://clubadventures.com/)LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/aaa-auto-club-enterprises (https://www.linkedin.com/company/aaa-auto-club-enterprises)Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/AAAAutoClubEnterprises (https://www.instagram.com/AAAAutoClubEnterprises)Facebook:

    Travel Souvenirs with Rolf Potts

    Holding on to the memories of the places we travel through souvenirs is an act of preservation. They are the physical manifestations of our travel experiences captured through the things we buy, collect, and even photograph, along the way. Souvenirs are meaningful not only for ourselves but they’re also a way of sharing those stories with others when we return home.Today, Angie Orth welcomes travel writer Rolf Potts.

You’ll hear about a Japanese-inspired tradition that imparts a deeper connection between the objects we choose and the people we gift them to, and you’ll learn how to be a more discerning shopper when it comes to selecting souvenirs. What You’ll Learn:* (3:02) The definition of a souvenir* (7:38) A deeper way to think about souvenirs* (11:58) How photography has influenced our travel memories* (14:49)  The evolution of travel keepsakes* (17:53) Advice on when to buy souvenirs Connect with:https://rolfpotts.com (https://rolfpotts.com)https://www.instagram.com/rolfpotts/ (https://www.instagram.com/rolfpotts/)https://x.com/rolfpotts (https://x.com/rolfpotts)https://www.facebook.com/rolf.potts (https://www.facebook.com/rolf.potts)Connect with AAA:Book travel: https://aaa-text.co/travelingwithaaa  (https://aaa-text.co/travelingwithaaa)https://clubadventures.com/ (https://clubadventures.com/)LinkedIn:
